glad you had this figured out somewhat with a complete confirmed itinerary atleast for now.

this i feel like is exactly what im trying to do with one of my award tickets involving Finnair, a pain in a$$.
It's gottento the point where the pnr is under "Finnair liasion/mgmt review" for whatever that means.

Agents aren't able to add and confirm an intra EU AY segment on an already confirmed AY (EU-USA segment).
