Be careful, any DL numbers on BP may cause AS to credit 0 miles. Also, due to recent shaky relationship, do not book this for AS runs solely, as it is likely that AS and KE may cut ties before the end of the year, like AF, KL, AM...

I bought two tickets for about $2150 each from DCA in February, on a mix of DL, KE, and GA. I guess I should credit to Delta? Seems like a good deal, even if it’s a bit higher than the OP’s price.

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...

I called Delta's diamond line about this, as i was also looking at the C biz class fare with the E legs from LGA to ATL and back. I wanted to know if Delta would credit leg by leg or take the lowest fare code of the entire flight and credit p oints that way. They said it was by leg, so that's good.

Now to figure out if there's a way to convert some CSR > Skypass points > upgrade from C to F
(figuring a long shot if i'm crediting to DL but who knows)

Delta says on their website that they won't give MQMs or mileage credit from anything booked from hotwire or priceline. And i can't find this fare anywhere else. EEK!
Here is the excerpt i pulled from their website:
