I've been looking at airfares for trip to India ATL - BLR in June - pretty specifically 5/30 or 6/1 to get there for a particular event and then flex on way home...6/20 +/-. Have pondered stopping in Paris for 2 days on way home. I am quite keen on using Delta. Husband has Gold status, I have sliver, we have some lounge privledges, build the miles. I am buying FIVE tickets (gulp).
The fares are continuing to hover around $1580 at lowest end for Delta. My hopes that they might come down are vanishing. I haven't used a travel agent in years.
Seeking advice about if I'd do better even if I want to specifically stick with Delta and how that might affect any benefits of the status. Miles accumulation etc. Any other thoughts on Delta service to India would be great too.
Thanks so much...it's time to make this trip a reality.

That is a good deal personally just book direct with Delta.
To snag all those miles...
Somtimes they drop prices to match sales in late Jan...
Tues PM is said to be the best day to book internationally.

all lots more than what you are getting
So I would go for it...
Happy Journey,
I've been looking at Delta to India fares extensively recently and have found that trying to combine the India domestic with the international fare is expensive. You may be able to lower the cost by looking at Delta to BOM or DEL (look at using AF code shares, too) and then a separate flight to BLR. Note that Jet Airways and Kingfisher are Delta partners, for those related benefits.
I ended up booking Delta award tickets to BOM and then Jet Airways separately to KTM.
