Keep getting error on multi-stop trip.
I'm trying to get a price for a multi-stop trip as below but keep getting the error "Something went wrong. Our system is having trouble. Please try again or come back later.". I have tried it on Delta and this worked, a leg at a time. I fancy I might be able to get a cheaper overall price than booking the internal flights separately, which is what we have done in the past. I have tried various options (eg just one passenger, not selecting class of travel - the two of us would be travelling in Business/First). Is there anyway to get this to work? Travel would be within 6 weeks from start at MAD to return to MAD. Any advice welcome. Calling AA would not give me the option to dwell over the various flight options.

Thank you!

I second the advice of Google flights, but I don't see much of an advantage of having it all on one ticket. I would probably book MAD-CLE / IAH-MAD and then go look at Southwest, Alaska, United, etc for the other two short hops. Especially because neither of those is going to be nonstop on AA-- not worth the hassle. Within the US most airlines (especially Southwest) will happily sell you one-way ticket for half the return price.

Thanks for the tips. Yes, 3 week gap between CLE and SEA and about a week at IAH. In the past we've restricted our flights to AA to maximise our miles' earning but given that they're rather useless these days, we'll certainly look at the alternatives suggested. By the way, I also tried United as well at Delta and they also were able to price this trip So it's not impossible, AA!
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
