Easter Island - is this possible?

I'm trying to finalize my OW award booking to South America. As it stands right now: MIA-GRU-EZE-SCL-LIM-MIA, just under 10K miles total which gives me an F award for 120K AA miles.

I decided to throw in Easter Island. I thought of doing it on a seperate ticket either revenue or miles. Well after I discovered the cost I changed my mind. ~$800 or 100K for Y, 125K for J and 150K for F.

But, if I were to throw in Easter Island(IPC) between SCL and LIM on my OW ticket, the total mileage would go up to around ~13.5K, which would only raise the price of the OW award ticket by 30K miles to 150K AA miles total and for F to boot.

This seems like the obvious way to go, but I'm thinking there has to be some kind of a catch.

Anybody has some info or suggestions, are there restrictions for this destination? I will call AA and request the addition but before I do I just want to be armed with knowledge that it's possible.

Thanks
