The second choice is to change your originating city from MCT to DXB, where AC/LH/LX may fly to. If you can find I space on these partner flights from DXB to their respective hubs, you can get back to USA with the rest of flights in JN class.
I cannot comment on your proposed option on FZ.
Good luck.
Wow, didn't even
occur to me to have a day in Istanbul then connect with the onward flight to the states. I'm slipping! Thanks

However, it will be a tough stopover...arriving 5:30am on the 18th, leaving 6:35am the following day. I'll have to think about this...
