... as well as Cathay Pacific. I was hoping to do a Cathay Pacific from LAX-BOM and Jet Airways from BOM-CCU. From what I am understanding, my only option is to call AA and have them put together this itinerary using miles. Right? I can't see Cathay or Jet availability on aa.com.
AA does not permit a North America to India award to route via the Pacific. You would need two separate awards.
