Looking through availabilty for connecting itinerary all the way from KIX to your final destination might not be available otherwise. Breaking it up into pieces might be a better idea.

Jiburi,
Yes, I looked into this. Unfortunately, a MSN-DTW-KIX-HNL-MSP-MSN itinerary is 90,000 miles, just like the MSN-DTW-KIX-DTW-MSN.
