  • 3,440 MDM each way
  • $516 MQD each way
  • 2,580 base miles each way

Thank you in advance!
gcmap says 3,451 miles each way.

So you should get:
3,451 MQM each way
$518 MQD
2,588 RDM

Looks like you read the chart and did the math correctly, we are just using different sources for the JFK-LHR distance. I have found gcmap to be extremely reliable with crediting to Delta, usually within ±1 mile.
