I want to do ICN->MLE and am wondering if ICN->DOH->MLE would be possible. ICN is Asia 1, DOH is Middle East and MLE is Indian subcontinent. I saw an article stating Asia 1 to India via Asia 2 is possible but wondering if a DOH connection would be possible as well. 40,000 miles for one way in business class for this flight would be awesome.
For fare routing rules, something like Expert Flyer is v useful
It isn't realistic to have all the routing rules for all routes for all airlines listed in one place, you just need to check the rules of the governing carrier for the rules specific to a planned journey
As far as 3rd region exceptions gp, that has been listed at

As noted, Middle East and India are treated as the same continent for routing, so no issue going through the middle east to get to india. Checking on EF, QR does have a fare published for that journey
