This results in only one Economy fare option displayed after choosing the flight:
I cannot risk booking into Basic Economy on Delta since this is an MQM run too.
It looks to me like Economy Standard (not light), although the "no free seat selection" raises doubts. Can the experts confirm this will be main cabin?
You should be safe, but you can follow "View trip details and ticket conditions" link to be sure. As long as flights have KL flight numbers and not DL flight numbers you are safe. A DL flight number together with a fare that has a 'B' in the second to last character of the 8 letter fare basis code indicates a DL BE fare that earns no MQM/MQD/miles. The fare basis codes are shown at the bottom of each direction in trip details as shown in post #3 above.
