Routing:

• JFK – AMS (Amsterdam) – JNB (Johannesburg) – DUR (Durban) – JNB – AMS – JFK

Mileage:

• 19,071 miles or 5.5 cents per mile. The JNB – DUR segment is codeshare with BA Comair — that segment will not be credited to Delta. As such, you’ll earn 18,477 miles or 5.7 cents per mile with Delta. KLM partners with Delta and is the national airline of the Netherlands. This fare will credit 100% mileage with Delta SkyMiles. With 18,477 miles, that’s almost enough for a free domestic ticket; remember to provide them your Delta SkyMiles number at checkin to receive your miles. DO NOT CREDIT THIS TO KLM’s program, as it will only earn 25%. Credit to Delta!
