Planning a trip to France in early 2024. I’d like to know the rollback details so I know to either to blow a bunch of miles - DL, Flying Blue or Flying Club - for the trip thereby saving a bunch of cash or to fully purchase the ticket thereby advancing status earning MQDs (and MQMs by if DL retains the scheme).
So far we have not seen any announcements that Skymiles award tickets will not continue to earn MQDs so you could still use miles and earn MQDs on said ticket as long as the flights are on DL metal booked with DL miles. Also, as noted above, there's no risk to booking a mileage ticket now and having something on the books and then canceling without penalty and rebooking flights through a different program or with cash later if changes are announced that redirect your strategy.
