No, it would earn 200% RDM (These are the miles you spend for free award flights), 150% MQM (These are the elite qualification miles, to earn status) and 40% MQD (A calculation of what Delta thinks you spent $ on the ticket, that is needed to hit the minimum spend requirements to have status) As long as you dont buy through delta. On top of this, if you have status with Delta, you would get a bonus on the RDM.
