the 5 of us fly to MUC via US on the 14th (afternoon departure from CMH)
the 5 of us return to CMH via US on the 22nd
me and the hubs fly home to ICT on the 23rd on AA RT ticket

My biggest concern is protecting the outbound CMH-PHL-MUC and the return CMH-ORD-ICT in the event of WX/MX issues, while ensuring that the 5 of us aren't split up on the international part (would be SIL & kids first international travel).

What is the best way to book with US? Is it possible to book this with US so was are on the same PNR in spite of our differing departure cities?
Book the five of you together on the US flights. Book the two of you separately on the AA flights.
