This whole topic is news to me and doesn't make sense. I have three homes: Houston, San Diego, and Napa, CA. I often book round trips that have me leaving one point and returning 6-8 weeks in the future. However, within that trip, I may need to go back to the point of origin for business for a few days, so will book SAN-IAH within IAH-SAN. Are you (the group/AA) saying this is not permitted? </font>
Your ticketing IS permitted. Your ticketing practices are perfectly ok as long as you don't return to your point of origin prior to the first Sunday after departure (or other minimum stay, as applicable). So you are free to book trips within a trip as long as you don't violate the minimum stay of the outer trip (IAH-SAN) by returning to IAH prior to Sunday morning.
Just don't book any IAH-SAN tickets that require an eight month minimum stay.
