I'm searching for nothing lower than Main.. and the results all say Main (Basic).. is this a new thing? Or was it always like that but I never noticed?

Also, I wanted to double-check and ask to make sure even if I booked a Basic for a cheaper price in miles.. Delta is still always refunding Asia->U.S Basic flights booked with miles?

TIA!
Presuming your flight is >October?
Delta is introducing new terminology. For the 'old' main cabin fares, look for Main Classic
