As GM I can SDC for no cost, then I can change the FF number back to VS to get the points on Virgin Atlantic.
If I need to SDC on the way back, then I'll fork over the $50. I have two flights after landing on my return leg (miles going to DL). If I SDC those I'd need to change the above return leg.
I bought a bunch of multi-hop trips to make sure that I'd be able to status match by segments but unexpectedly made my miles requirement by 20 miles on my last trip from JFK. So, I don't need to fly the crazy route and if I can change it to be more relaxed with time in a SkyLounge, I'd be happier.
I do like the flexibility of SDC.

Or he can swap out FFP numbers as someone else suggested.
I've literally spent more time getting to the airport for that flight than time on board the plane.
