I envy you for this success.
And great TR too. ^
Actually not an open jaw:
IAD-FRA-SIN-DPS
DPS-BKK-PEK
PEK-FRA-IAD
So destination DPS, stopover in PEK on the return.
Of course, I overnighted in BKK but that stop was less than 24 hours. And I overnighted in FRA on the return, but that was ~ 22 hours. So neither was a stopover, all legal.
UA permits routing North America to Asia via the Atlantic for a small premium, and I found much better availability on LH. So I figured, why not?
