No MQM Miles on SQ?
Hello FTers -
Hope someone can shed some light on this.
I have a trip to Asia on SQ in Biz Class in a few weeks.
DL indicates on their website mileage credit is given for SQ flights as per the details below. When I called the DL Plat Desk to double check they informed me that they do give credit for mileage but it will not count towards MQM!
Anyone have experience with this or advice????
Seems they should have some disclaimer in the fine print, no???
What to do???
Singapore Airlines offers:18
Economy Class: Actual mileage flown
Business Class: 125% of mileage
First Class: 150% of mileage
Fine print -
18Singapore Airlines:
Mileage may be earned on Singapore Airlines-coded and operated flights. Mileage credit is not applicable for fares booked in G, N, Q, R, or V class, or for tickets issued as part of a cruise package.

On the bright side; you are flying SQ in Business.
Go to the SQ forum and read up on making the most of your flight.
Book the Cook, etc.

If you are flying on a full fare business ticket, call DL's partner award desk and see if there is upgrade availability in F on your flights. I think it's 50k miles round-trip which to me would be well worth the miles.

When I flew SQ I received DL Miles but not MQMs. I believe I did receive bonus miles based on my class of service. They were not MQM's.
