Returning from DEL on TG, as follows: DEL-HKT-BKK-NRT (3 day stopover)-NRT-SFO-PHL. One open jaw at destination, and one single stopover in NRT enroute. I am concerned about the number of segments, and should this even be an issue as all layovers <24 hours. I was hoping for some guidance before trying UA reservation center. I am UA Gold, if that matters at all. Thanks for your input and guidance.
That appears fine. From my experience, the easiest way to get reservations to work is to say upfront that you have a complex itinerary and already have all the flight #'s and just feed it to them. That has been the difference between an ~2 hour call and ~30 minutes.
