The regional AA reservations group (in Delhi) say they can't see them. I've even got AY res. in SIN and AA res. in Delhi to talk to each other by phone. No dice, so far.

AA are trying to get me to make this detour instead: SFO-SYD-SIN on QF, but this eats a lot of extra miles.

Any thoughts?
That's got to be a rare event - AA recommending J awards on QF across the Pacific...

Miles only count between stopovers, so that routing is fine.

Yes, QF is running SFO-YVR in June so that could work too. SFO-xYVR-HKG would be okay.
