Thanks for the response. Maybe I'm missing something but I don't track how this would work. Believe MPM for YVR-IST is 9920. When I check the mileage for IST-HKG-YVR I get 11,375 - wouldn't that make it an invalid route?
When you did IST-ICN-YVR was IST your destination? I get 10,266 for the mileage on that route - again beyond the 9920 YVR-IST MPM. Or do I have the YVR-IST MPM number wrong?
