Short on MQMs with Delta and have already booked travel rest of year. Can I do same day changes from direct flights to flights with a connection to boost my MQMs? Not sure if this is allowed.

This includes a few years of rollovers. I normally fly about 200k a year

Unfortunately routing changes are not allowed. Think of all the people that would love to do the opposite

Can you book some mileage runs for a weekday day? E.g. fly in and out same day? If you’re really close it’s worth it.
