Thanks for the info. I will be using Qantas miles for this ticket. I need to go to HYD in india from Milwaukee, US. Looking at Qantas website thought that I need 110,000 miles to fly BA. But if I can take 4 extra stopovers, sure I am happy to spend 20K more.

Can someone tell me if this is a valid itin.

AFAIK, no oneworld airlines service HYD or MAA, so the routing bom-hyd-maa-sin is not possible. Also, (at least according to AA), you wouldn't be able to do the mke-mco-mke or mke-sfo-mke; as you can only connect in a city twice, and cannot stopover in your departure city.

You might be able to do (X is stopover):

mke-ord-lhr-bom(X)
bom-bkk-sin-hkg-lax-dfw-msn(X)
msn-stl-mco(X)-dfw-msn(X)
ord-sfo(X)-stl-mke

kinda ugly!
