What research have you done yourself to date?
With multiple ffp accounts you have options.
Is the order of cities fixed?

I suggest you go to www.aa.com and click through to the AAdvantage page, and the 'book travel'. By entering dates into the screen you have the ability to see a whole month of availability. This may take a few hours of time, but will yield the best results. I expect you'll probably transit though a US hub first.

Thanks for responses thus far.
Prefer MIA-ICN-KUL-MIA
to visit pre-ICN rainy season.
This thread is start of my research,
just hoping experts with knowledge "off top of head"
can point me in best direction to start grunt work!!?
PS. AA no longer charges $35 int'l phone booking fee, right?
So is it still better that I do busywork via AA.com?
