I would advise you, therefore, to focus your trip on the UK only, and to change your return leg such that it departs from the UK.
This is not a time to be dealing with separate tickets; even though both you and I know that your intention is not to enter the Netherlands, you run a very real risk of being thwarted in your travels.
Now, more than ever, book all travel on a single ticket. I would strongly advise you to change your open-jaw to a simple return.
Thanks, mate. That is what I suspected would be prudent. Now to see if I can convince Delta to add a leg without repricing the entire itinerary (obviously not anything this forum can comment on) - fortunately, there have been about a bazillion schedule changes since I first bought the ticket.
