If you use chase or Amex rewards directly to book travel do you still get points and MQMs; it’s not like just using Delta miles right?

Yes - you get mqms for Amex reward flights booked via the total rewards travel portal. Same for chase rewards

Yes. You still get points and MQMs, as long as you use the "cash value” of the rewards points, and don’t transfer them to Delta points to book.

Yes but don’t do that. It’s a waste of points .

Is this a sign of a personality disorder? Or something else? How can I support her?
