I think it's less and more like 25%. I'm looking at some of my trans-continental WS flights that were credited to my DL account and it looks like I got a minuscule amount of MQM. I probably should have booked the flights on DL's website for a bit more, but I would have gotten substantially more MQMs. Oh well, lesson learned.

If you book as DL-coded flights, they will earn miles/MQD's based on spend (and MQM's distance). If booked as WS-coded, miles/MQD's will be based on distance (refer to WS earnings table). Note that most economy fares do not earn 100% MQM's (unlike DL marketed flights).
