Is this backtracking to Hawaii?
I currently have reserved a DONE4:
LAX-ORD-GRR-ORD-PVG....asia...africa...europe...LHR-ORD
Can I add ORD-HNL as my last segment or would this be backtracking in the same continent?
This will be my final segment, I will make alternate plans to come back from Hawaii.

30N . BACKTRACK WITHIN A CONTINENT IS PERMITTED EXCEPT
31N . AS FOLLOWS:
32N . -BACKTRACK BETWEEN HAWAII AND THE CONTINENTAL US
33N . INCLUDING PRVI//CANADA NOT PERMITTED.
83N . * ONLY 1 FLIGHT BETWEEN HAWAII AND THE
84N . CONTINENTAL US INCLUDING PRVI/CANADA
I don't understand how to interpret 30-33

Just called and a very nice junior AAgent said that 'looked' like backtracking (the AAgent did not consult with anyone else), but since I have other issues with my ticket I will call back.
Nevertheless, Since I originally will fly LAX-ORD and much later ORD-HNL could you provide me some ammunition on what to say when I call back in reference to the interpretation of Hawaii?

No going back to the mainland: check.
Nice AAgent says no: talk to ATW Desk; equally nice but better informed.
ATW Desk still says no: talk to supervisor.
