Please read the USDM membership guide... You'll find lot of information there on this side... i.ex.:

• One en route stopover per itinerary is permitted for select international travel awards.

• Travel from North America to Europe is not allowed via Asia, and travel between Europe and Japan/North Asia/South Asia/Australia/New Zealand is not permitted via North America.

So, forget about your routing... Since US joined OW, most of the bookings will be checked by the fare desk and now it's much more diffucult to get a routing against the rules than before...
