Anybody find a good way to do this.

Thanks
As many will quickly tell you, Delta is tough to use miles on. However, if you are flexible with dates and willing to spend a ton of time looking for availability, DL allows stop-overs. It helps to route leg by leg and consider another stop in NA to get the flight you need.

Since you have MR, consider getting KVS or ExpertFlyer to search for flight availability.
