Does that sound right?

It appears so: https://www.delta.com/skymiles/ways_...ners/index.jsp
You can always credit your KL flights to another program.

I have never had to deal with a multi-carrier itenerary before. How do I get the KL flights under a different FF plan? Online on nwa.com, I only see where to put in the FF# for all flights. Do I call NW?
Thanks to the OP for this, I am glad so many of us were able to ticket to Europe. Hopefully, we will all enjoy wonderful times and report back on this thread how much the OP improved our lives.

Can anybody confirm this? And does the above also apply even on KL flights with NW flight numbers?

Multiple airlines
Hmmm. Is it possible to accrue SEA-AMS (NW) on Alaska Air and then switch the mileage number to NW for AMS-SVO (KL) with an agent at AMS? Then switch back to AS on the return trip through AMS? Shame KLM doesn't let you accrue on AS anymore...

Definitely a bummer for AS to lose KLM.

Tickets seem ok to me so far...
My credit card has been charged.
I reconfirmed the two travelocity.com tickets on nwa.com.
All 4 tickets (two from nwa.com) show up on nwa.com. I was able to add my frequent flyer numbers and get SFO-AMS seat assignments to bulkhead aisles with a live NWA rep with no funny questions.
Looks good so far...
It does look like NWA collects the $110 fuel, but I didn't get the $20 Europe or $0 Fiji/Iceland mistakes...so still a teensy nervous.
I'm waiting a few weeks before cancelling my other 2 airline flights to take these cheaper trips.
Thanks everyone at FlyerTalk!!! Already looking for fun trips in Zurich. :-)

The DTW-AMS flight should be especially good

KLM flights can be credited to CO for 100% EQM
.....
I've been able to use my "NonePass" miles for many free trips. But I also don't use award miles for business-class international...
It's been easier to find award travel on CO/NW/DL with CO miles. Using my NW/DL miles is either more miles or less flight availability.
Just my experience. NW/DL elites might find it different.

NWA Cancelled My Trip!
My ticket to Milan was cancelled. I originally emailed them to inquire about the status of the tickets, since it didn't seem to ticket. No response except to wait 24-48 hours. Then followed up with another email and they said they were looking into it. I finally got back to the US and called NWA directly. The supervisor said it was a zero fare and had cancelled it! 
She said I needed to talk to Customer Service.
Anyone else had this problem and provide possible approach to salvage this?

If it was on AZ they would have to paper ticket. Solution - don't call next time - you'r ejust drawing attention to yourself and we all know not to do that don't we?
