Status match question

I wonder for status match to Delta, do flights need to be on delta tickets delta metal?

Or flights can be Delta partner flights, such as Air France KLM?

Thanks!

I have read both English & French detail, and none of them specify it must be done only on Delta.

From my understanding it include AF/KLM via the Skyteam partnership...

"Only MQMs, MQSs and MQDs earned through travel on Delta, Delta Connection, and SkyMiles Partner Airlines will count towards the challenge"

You need to check the specific T&Cs for your own status challenge. Depending on the details (corporate travel contract benefit, for example), the rules might not be the same for everyone. Plus, this is the sort of question where I personally wouldn't trust an anonymous response on the internet nor the answer given by an airline phone agent.
