Hi everyone,

I need some help planning flights for a trip with my wife. We will be travelling to India from San Francisco Bay Area, with the hope of going through Europe.
I don't understand the rules/regulations around stopovers, so I'd like some help from the community here.

Here's the requirements:
1. We should leave from SFO or SJC on Dec 5th.
2. I think we have 2 choices:
a. visit Dublin
b. visit Paris and/or Amsterdam
3. Leave Europe on Dec 10th, arrive in DEL on Dec 11th around 1am (local)
4. Leave DEL on Dec. 13 for home

If we go to Dublin, we'd probably stay there the whole time.
If we go to Paris/Amsterdam, I assume we'd take a train between the two, so we really could fly into one, and out of the other.

I have access to expertflyer.com for 5 days (free trial), so if you have guidance instead of a solution, I'm open to that as well.

In advance, I really appreciate anyone who will take the time to help me out here. I feel like I've been searching for days, and only have a general idea of what it'll cost, but no direction on the best "path" to take.

Other notes:
I have Silver status with Delta.
My wife does not have status.
I have 83,252 miles, but have no idea what that means, or how to use vouchers for my wife or myself.

Thank you,
Chris
