so to clarify ... if you’re looking for the most stops on a single flight whose route approximates the path of one of the TCON interstates, that would seem to limit the search to NW for I-90, UA or TW for I-80, and NA for I-10

in 1961 United operated a DC-7 flight pretty much along I-80 from Idlewild (IDL) to SFO with seven stops:
  1. Philadelphia (PHL)
  2. Detroit Willow Run (YIP)
  3. Chicago (ORD)
  4. Onaha (OMA)
  5. Denver (DEN)
  6. Salt Lake City (SLC)
  7. Oakland (OAK)

in 1962 TWA operated a Super-G Constellation flight IDL-DCA-ORD-DEN-LAX-OAK-SFO
