Hmmm. the NRT-ATL flights goes north over the pole, no? But anyway, in my searches on KE, I am indeed having trouble finding the NRT-ATL route on KE. I'm wondering if I could route inbound as follows (allowing for KE metal for NRT-ICN-LAX):

DPS-NRT(stopover)-ICN-LAX-MCO

Can't remember if there is a limit to segments and if this routing would automatically eliminate NRT stopover.

So actually, I could do a dummy itinerary for LAX-ICN-HKG and DPS-NRT-ICN-LAX and it priced out at the 155k and $350 charges. What I can't do is add the MC0-LAX segment on either end. I think it tries to route via ATL. Is forced routing MCO-LAX-ICN-HKG something KE could do over phone?
