DL SkyMiles Member - Flying to Germany on Continental in October

All- thanks for the great posts here. I am planning to fly to Germany October 23-October 31. I am getting a good deal on Continental, which will not be part of SkyTeam end of October. Will I still get Delta SkyMiles for flying with Continental during that timeframe? Also, my class is T. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

You will get 50% MQMs and 100% RDMs for your outbound flight.

You will receive zero miles for your return flight.

Depends on how much extra it costs. @:-)

You can always put the miles from the return trip somewhere else. But definitely consider how much extra you are going to be paying for those ~5000 miles and make sure that you don't let the allure of the miles overwhelm the practical side where you remember that the miles aren't the only thing to value. Time and money are important, too. :-:
