You should learn how to write flights the Flyertalk way so it is clear to everybody. There is no PDX-OAX in one go, it requires a connection. So on FT people write PDX-XXX-OAX if there is a connection (and you don't want to say what).
Because too many get confused by non-stop versus direct, just write all the stops out.
