Has anyone had any luck changing their dates for the tickets on this deal?
I can see seats available in the booking class on EF, so the idea is to book the dates that are available and then change once I've booked paying the penalty, before I pul the trigger I was wondering if anyone had luck changing the dates?

No, it would earn 200% RDM (These are the miles you spend for free award flights), 150% MQM (These are the elite qualification miles, to earn status) and 40% MQD (A calculation of what Delta thinks you spent $ on the ticket, that is needed to hit the minimum spend requirements to have status) As long as you dont buy through delta. On top of this, if you have status with Delta, you would get a bonus on the RDM.

I believe that ticketing carrier no longer matters for Delta earnings on MU.
It is my understanding that it still does, especially for MQD and RDM, which would go based on of the ticket price paid to Delta minus all taxes. So on this fare, being a cheap J, you are going to earn way more on a China Eastern ticketed flight than a DL. Especially someone with no status! MQM might be the same though.

It doesn't matter. Just go by the flight number. If it's DLxxxx it earns as a DL flight. If it's MUxxxx it earns as MU, no matter who issues the ticket.
