Isn't MU one of DL's core partners? This isn't a huge deal for me, but it would be nice to be able to use miles between Shanghai and Japan without having to stop in Korea. Maybe we need to book by phone? Thanks in advance for your insights.
There's no harm in calling DL to inquire, but DL's website says that award travel on MU can be booked online:

(Some airlines might not make some of their award seats available to partners.)
