I am looking to complete a delta status challenge and want to turn my layover flight into two legs, meaning I would have to go out of the connecting airport and back in through security. Has anyone done this? Does this count as two legs / one-way trips?

Why would you have to go through security again?

I am unsure how to read this. Thought it was saying layovers do not count?

If this status challenge is thru your employer then reach out to your travel contact there; they can contact a Delta rep who can answer this and potentially save you the hassle

This counts as 2 segments. Leaving the airport and going through security twice has no effect on that.

FYI, followed up with Delta. Delta only counts layovers as one-way tickets and will count anything as a layover booked on the same transaction within four hours apart. The only way around this is to book two one-ways separately on different transactions if you want it to count for two legs.
