Advice required?

I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I decided on the Oneworld xONE6 months ago based on being able to see Easter Island; however, when I called AA rtw desk last week I couldn't get any flights booked? We wanted to travel to Easter Island in mid September for 2/3 days on our way to Australia.

We are flying on discount tickets (myself, wife and 2 children). AA couldn't find any flights on their system (L class) at all for any month during the year. They told me to book the ticket Open and see what happens? Getting stuck on Easter Island could be quite expensive and somewhat boring after a couple of days let alone weeks!

Should I call LAN airlines and book the ticket with them?

If I can't get the flights to Easter Island I would really consider alternate ticketing arrangements......maybe a directional rtw fare and then subsequent side trips ontop.

Any suggestions??
