Can you earn miles, MQM, etc on partner award tickets?

As far as earning in the event of IROPs, it's possible to earn in limited circumstances. Typically it's only possible if you're rebooked to another (non-JV or non-alliance) airline. For instance, your DL flight is cancelled and you get them to rebook you on AA (on a revenue ticket). Decent chance you'd be able to retroactively claim mileage credit for the AA flight (with AAdvantage or another OW FFP, not DL obviously).
This still wouldn't garner any MQM or SkyMiles of course. But if you want to believe that you can earn SkyMiles on DL award flights, go right ahead.

Does anyone know if my flight is delayed by more than fifteen minutes that Delta owes you a free Delta Private Jet ride? My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw someone get a a private jet ride as compensation once. So how do I get that voucher...and do you think I can also get a meal voucher too?

Seems like you're just trolling at this point.

If I knew a reliable way to get this to happen (which I don't), I sure as hell wouldn't post the details publicly @:-)

crediting to a partner won't change this. they all know what each other's award buckets are.

As members have posted, the OP got an answer to the question, and this thread is now closed.
