I know earnings are usually based on the fare class and route, but does using eCredits affect that in any way? Would love to hear from anyone who’s done this before.
Thanks!
Yes, you will.
All revenue tickets earn XPs, regardless of how they are paid for.. Only award bookings do not earn.
Note, however, that as you are booking via Delta and using an eCredit, there is a chance that your Skymiles number will be hardwired into the booking, and that your Skymiles account will be credited rather than your Flying Blue account. We have had numerous reports on the Flying Blue forum involving Delta down through the years of miles posting to the "wrong" account even when the boarding pass shows the "right" FFP details/number.
