XPs in Flying Blue are essential, because that is the currency, so to speak, used for status qualification. Oddly, it doesn't matter how cheap or expensive the Economy or Business sub-classes are, you book, you get the same XPs according the class. So for Economy tickets, it's worth going for the cheapest possible from now.

I remember back in Aug ish AA had ~$500 I class LAX-BDA(?) fare and can route through JFK on A321Ts. However I only need it for the LAX-JFK seg and I usually check at least one bag, thus can't utilize it due to the need of short check.
Delta brands its lie-flat equipments as Delta One and sells them under different fare classes (the biz fare class J C D I Z) and are significantly more expensive than those domestic FC ones (which they still use F A etc.) So I guess it isn't that hard for them to restrict these fares.

I booked LAX-JFK-SJU. Today I got an email today that there had been a schedule change. The time change was on JFK-SJU, but in comparing the itins, I noticed that the original equipment type on the LAX-JFK segment was listed as a 767-400 while the new equipment type is a 767-300 (winglets). Can I assume this is still a Delta One flight?
