But prices are slightly higher than for cheapest routes.

I do need your help.
I live in Germany an want to book this routing I found on google flights for 869€
BGO-IKT 09.02.18
IKT-FCO 14.02.18
FCO-LHR 16.02.18
LHR-BGO 19.02.18
I do not know how to book the ticket via delta or any other platform as I cannot book it via KL or AF directly. Can you tell me your secrets? Would be so awesome!!
The travel agent I went to only found tickets above 4000€

Doesn't seem to be so, if I understand you correctly.
So far I've uncovered a couple. I'm just wondering if someone uncovered some more and if there is a rule to the madness.
Other than that, I'm playing with the stuff, see if I can game the routing (as an example, it would be quite advantageous for me if I could do 3 stopovers per direction as opposed to 2, but I've so far only managed to do that by reducing 2 stopovers on the other direction to 1, due to Matrix 6 flight multicity limit). Even if it turned out to be a bit more expensive for me, it would be well worth it as I could eliminate expenditures on some extra flights I will need either way.

On Priceline you can manually modify the link to have as many stopovers as eticket or PL system can handle. 5 segments is a limit wheb each sector starts in another city (ie surface segment after each segment).
But it takes some effort to make it right.

There is information in this thread on how exactly most of us booked this fare.

Unless I'm missing something, if you include IKT, IST and TLV you have around 16K butt-in-seat miles, multiply that by 2.5 and here's your 40K, add that short segments are counted as 750 miles and you are over 40K, actually more like 45K
