Thanks for the clarification and confirmation. It is a bit frustrating when people make up their own definitions for terms, which is why FrequentFlyer9000's and my posts went right past each other a while back.

I'm trying to book an international award with a stopover in both directions.

SEA-DTW(stop)-ATL-STT(dest)-ATL-DTW(stop)-SEA

I believe this follows all the rules I'm aware of. I can find all segments in LOW, but it won't price correctly on Delta.com. Is this an example where I need to call and have the rate desk fix it?

One stopover on an award ticket is all you're allowed.

You can only go to two destinations (one destination or open jaw and one stopover), not three. You need to cut one stopover here.
