domestic Fcl travel on DL for credit to FBlue
Hello. Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience, and any possible solution
Looking to travel domestic USA flights on DL and credit to my Flying Blue account
As per the FB webpage, for regional and domestic flights,, DL valid classes in First Class are FAPG. Then there is a listing of economy classes, but none for business.
(Business class codes are only provided for intercontinental flights)
Tried to book FAPG on delta.com, no flights offered with these codes. Only flights offered (on various routes) are JDCIZ.
Called Delta and they confirm that since about three months ago, their domestic first class is coded JDCIZ, and that FAPG are no longer in use.
Called Flying Blue and according to them, flight must be in FAPG, if not, no credit. They seem not to care that FAPG no longer exists.
They (Flying Blue) seem also not to care that JDCIZ do not credit any miles or XP
Any body had a similar experience ?? Any suggestions on how to travel paid domestic USA and get flying blue credit ??
Thanks in advance

JCDIZ fares have been traditionally used for international business class fares by DL (Delta One). They have now migrated to using them for their domestic First Class fares as well. KL almost certainly does not look at the actual route the fares are applied to, so there should be no issues with getting credit for them. The PAG fare classes are now used by DL exclusively for international Premium Economy fares and they use W fares for Comfort+.

They credit fine for me. You get a pittance as far as miles and credit goes ('domestic' credit being basically designed for European domestic segments) but it works fine.
