Flying El Al / Air France / Delta on one ticket! -- Help me figure it out!
Hey friends,
I am an El Al Gold member and a Delta Platinum member. I am flying TLV-CDG-DTW-CVG soon, and I am trying to figure out how to use the benefits.
I need to use my El Al number on my first flight (which is an AF codeshare on LY metal) so that I can get preferred seating, preferred check in, and lounge access in Tel Aviv. But, since it's an AF ticket, I need to use my DL number to get miles.
On top of that, I want to earn for all three segments on DL and I also want to use my DL number on the second two flights so that I get lounge access in CDG and DTW and can get preferred seating. I can't figure out how to do it.
As of now, my El Al number is in the record and I have a preferred seat on the first leg. Can I successfully use the two different numbers for different segments and can I switch to use DL even for the first leg after I check in?
Any advice? Thanks in advance!
