But, how will NW handle this given they converted DL's Y-class ticket to M-class (note, the underlying DL ticket is showing Y-class fare basis codes).
I believe that you will get "M" EQM's. "Y" on one airline does not always equate to "Y" on another. Just a guess, but I have seen different codes for the fare classes.
