That's OK - you can stopover in the same city as many times as you like on a OWE subject only to the limits of:
a)2 stopovers in total in the continent of origin, and
b) what you can work within the segment and other routing limits.
I regularly stopover multiple times in HKG on OWEs bought in Europe.

what christep said...
I am currently on a OWE4 and am based on LAX (although I buy it from Aus due to lower cost). I arrive here, an do sidetrips within my sector limit in NA, always coming back here....so no probs.

There's a rule that says if you start your journey from LAX, once you return to LAX your trip is over, even if you haven't used your NA segments or hit the 20-segment limit. I can't imagine that it would apply if you pass through LAX a couple of times *before* your first intercontinental leg. Also you realize that you only can have 2 stopovers in the continent of origin.

I see that you can stop in the same city more than once, but can you fly the same segment more than once? For example, can you do LAX-DFW-LAX-DFW-LAX-DFW-LAX for your 6 segments?
