First three legs to be flown in December:
CAI-CMN-JFK-LAX (stopover)
Planned rebooking:
LAX-ANC (stopover) - DFW-GRU-JFK-HKG-DPS (stopover) HKG-CGK (stopover) - HKG-DOH (stopover)-HEL-LHR-CAI
Total flight segments 16
Based on my understanding of the rules this should work but just wanted to confirm I am not missing anything obvious before I make arrangements to nest the 13 legs into my next Tier Point collection year by booking flights back from LAX spanning the period between the first 3 flights and the proposed 13 flight rebooking. Also to confirm except for recalculating fees and surcharges there should be no further fees.
Thanks again
All looks fine to me. And correct - once you've flown the first flight the base fare is locked in.
