I'm trying to fly Qsuites NYC-DOH-MLE (possibly DOH-CMB-MLE with Sri Lankan) and NYC-DOH isn't available. My date is in Feb, so I realize it may never come available, even though the seat map looks fairly empty for NYC-DOH currently. My backup plans are ORD-DOH and IAD-DOH, both of which do have availability for my date. The issue is that I can book either:
  • NYC-ORD/IAD-DOH-CMB
-- or --
  • ORD/IAD-DOH-CMB-MLE
The AA website will not give me both the positioning flight on AA metal from NYC to ORD/IAD and the final CMB-MLE leg under the same itinerary. Has anyone had to deal with this? I'm afraid if may be issues the four segments not being a published routing, so I'm not sure what the AA reps can do, if anything. Hoping to get some advice before calling in. Thanks!
