I remembered once I have a 5-segment multi-cities MR on UA. They are all within a single locator and ticket number.

it will clearly state it is a CONJUNCTION TICKET that tickets are linked together.
Yeah that's called conjunction TKT as
ChrisLi said. It is system-wide. Back in the days with paper TKT a physical TKT can only have 4 segments and 5 cities written and hence why. BTW,
ChrisLi had a conjunction TKT probably due to an PVG-SHA open jaw (which is counted as one sector)? However, that is not what I was talking about, nor was I talking about booking containing multiple PAX.
As stated I do not know how AAdvantage handle things like this. However, say the cost of LHR-HKG in F + HKG-PER in J is cheaper than LHR-PER in F, everything can be booked under one reference (record locator) but issued as 2 separate TKTs - one LHR-HKG in F and the other HKG-PER in J, each has different fare rules, etc.
