AS gives miles for KE flights that are both marketed and operated by KE. In addition to excluding the DL operated flights, this would also exclude any GA operated flights (i.e. from DPS - ICN). Care needs to be taken with this fare if the goal is to maximize AS miles.

From what I can tell, Sunday-Thursday departures seem to be able to be refunded/changed for $200, according to the OTA. Other departures seem to be non-refundable. This is according to the OTA and not the official fare rules, though.

This would have been really handy a few weeks ago! 
Flying to DPS from NYC at the end of the month and burned a load of miles for OS Business, CX First and paid cash GA J to/from HKG!

I'm wondering what this will mean in terms of class paid/flown. I looked at my Hotwire receipt and saw that my fare basis is E but I'm in C. I'm trying to fulfill MQDs for DL DM, and I'm just worried that it'll credit at E instead of C (20% vs. 40%) when it comes to MQDs...
