And what about in terms of operating carrier? So, in my example of KL-marketed and DL-operated segments, would my MQD earnings be based on the KL chart?

If it's a KL-marketed flight, it will also carry a KL fare class. KL has a number of fare classes that do not align with DL fare classes. For example, R, N, S are all revenue classes on KL, but they are award classes on DL. So, yes, as long at it's KL marketed (even if operated by DL), the KL chart will be used.

Question

Thanks for the help, LBJ!

One final question: If I book a ticket on DL.com (thus issued on 006 ticket stock) and my itinerary AMS-ATL-SFO are all on KL-marketed, DL-operated flights, then my MQD, MQM, and RDM earnings will be based on the KL accrual chart. Is this correct?

Correct. Ticketing stock will no longer matter.
