So I then lolly-gag around Korea for a week and now want to come back, with a short stay in Tokyo, from PUS.

If I search for a direct to JFK, I pull up a codeshare again with JL (AA7264). But if I stay in Tokyo for a day and a half, all I can get is the same flight as JL958.

Now under the knowledge the FT members have bestowed on me (AA codeshare is like AA metal, you get EQM/EQP), I would prefer the AA codeshare. However, I am now thinking the codeshare only works on a continuous connection.

How long of a "lay-over" can I get away with and still get the codeshare?
