And what's even more surprising as I said in the 1st post of this thread, even the TA Ulti do not see the code-share in their system and can't sell it, while an OTA can
Because fares/schedules are loaded on a O&D basis, not by cabin. So unless you specifically select P (which DL doesn't offer) you will see DL* irrespective of cabin. And given the NATL JV, it doesn't really matter in the backend (obviously the customer experience, UXP, etc. is different - this is the tradeoff, unfortunately).
