Essentially, I have a return flight that goes from DEL-SVO-NRT-LAX with a couple hrs in each city for transfer. On NWA.com it is booked as a single return. I'm wondering if I can push the time in NRT to a day or two. I'm hoping booking it online then calling NWA.com reservation to make the change, or try my luck at the NWA counter in NRT... though it seems like a not so good option after travel has already commenced.
Trying to do this when you arrive in NRT would probably not work. I'm pretty sure that you can have a free stopover in NRT for your itinerary, so why not just book it that way? I think you can book a stopover on nwa.com by using the multi-city search for award tickets. Since only the NRT-LAX segment is likely operated by NW/DL, I don't think you will have married segment problems.
