That is my understanding per the Plat Elite line. I've already requalified for Plat this year, so more EQM is just padding for me at this point.

I called the Plat Elite line to inquire about Elite Bonus mileage if I were to fly on a DL codeshare operated by Alitalia. I wasn't able to get a clear answer so I booked my trip on all DL metal to be safe (even though I will only earn a 100% Plat bonus on DL vs 125% if on NW metal).

It also took some work to get DL to assign "premium Y" seats as a NW Plat / Skyteam Elite Plus member. I will be flying DL in a few weeks from SDF-CVG-FCO / FCO-JFK-CVG-SDF. FWIW, I do have a World Club membership, but based on my SkyTeam Elite Plus status and traveling on an international ticket, which DL lounges will I have access to? Just the Crown Room, or would I be able to use the BusinessElite lounge?

Also - anyone know what my lounge options are in FCO?

Best,

P.S. I am on a DL "K" class fare, FWIW -- not sure where that falls with DL's fare classes.
