JAL Asia Miles Redemption
I'm trying to book YVR-NRT-CTS with Asia Miles. There is availability in J on YVR-NRT and Y on NRT-CTS when searching separately but searching YVR-CTS won't bring up those results. Do I have to call in to book that? How many miles would that be?

Edit: But, YVR-NRT is within 5000 miles while YVR-NRT-CTS is not. In this case, you are slightly better off redeeming separate tickets (61000 AM for YVR-NRT in U + 10000 AM for NRT-CTS in T = 71000 AM total as opposed to mixed cabin which would be roughly 71600~71700 AM). JL through-check across separate oneworld PNRs anyway. You can still call to see if they can put both tickets in 1 PNR if they can override any married segment issues.

Mixed cabin with intl. J + JAL domestic doesn't work well online, I think it's because "Class J" is not available for redemption and the website doesn't try to fallback to Y. Anyway, when I tried to book this type of itinerary earlier, I didn't find any married segment limitations, i.e. if two segments are available separately you can book them as one ticket by call/chat.
