Which brings up a question I have asked before, but no one has ever answered.
Given that married segment logic applies to connecting flights, is there some way to utilize the free stopover on award tickets to avoid married segment logic.
By way of example, LAX-AMS-BCN with less than 24 hours on the ground in AMS would be a connection, so married segments would apply.
If it was over 24 hours on the ground in AMS, then it would be a stopover, and I would assume the married segment logic would not apply.
The question is whether or not there is some way a layover with less than 24 hours on the ground in AMS could be booked with AMS as a stopover, and avoid the married segment logic.
