If standard award space is available (or made available by CO) for general CO FFP members during that period, then you will be able to redeem DL miles for such a trip too. Award tickets already issued by DL before CO leaves SkyTeam will be honored by CO for travel. In other words, you are likely to be as able to use your miles for a Feb. 2009 - March 2009 trip on CO as you would be even without this UA-CO deal.
