The EK fares from CMH-CGK only allow travel on AA for the intra USA segement. So basically the EK site is pricing a much (much much) more expensive ticket that allows travel on DL. These are the routing rules

Code:

There is a routing via Dallas DFW that will reduce overall travel time by about 4 hours (pretty much the same travel time as DL via JFK) but still has long connections (3h in DFW and then 6h in DXB) for the same price.
