Came across it on Travelocity. Did the "Best fare finder" for FLL-BNA, then picked Delta and some dates. Then it gave me some two-segment routings for departure, but I clicked on "View more fares" and it gave me a couple three-segment choices. Same for return flights. Not familiar with Delta's site, but I'd assume you could find the same flights there.

Travelocity does have some weird quotes!
Try asking for HKG-PWN (Hong Kong to Portland Maine) - they come up with a United fare in 9 booking classes for "$00.00" per ticket!
Now thats the fareI like for a mileage run!

I can't speak for flights booked thru Travelocity, but Delta flights I have booked thru Expedia earned me both base miles and Silver Medallion bonus miles. I would expect the same would be true for Travelocity. The only miles you should miss would be the on-line booking bonus you get on the Delta site (1000 miles for a R/T ticket).
