Seat Plans - 777 vs 787

Slightly bummed that I have what seems to be the old 777 business class seats from MIA->SCL on Nov 6. There is an AA flight operated by LAN that departs 2 hours earlier which, according to ITA, runs the 787...

I am curious if I could get the flight changed to the LAN flight.

Did anyone manage to get a stopover in the U.S. on this fare?

I don't have any stopovers in my own, but here's what I could find:

1000 TP is max - have not found any 210.
You would need to go through HEL and will end up with something like:
MAD-PAR-LHR-JFK-BOS/CLT-MIA-SCL
SCL-MIA-BOS/CLT-JFK-LHR-HEL-AMS

But due to exceeding MPM it will be around 1760 € so 1.3GPB/TP
If such a run would be fun? Don't think so..

Booked this as AMS-LHR-JFK-MIA-EZE-JFK-BCN for around $2000 USD around the days before XMas and the week after New Years, a decent amount of EQPs for next year, other miles going to Alaska and only 300 more than coach!
Used a eVip to upgrade MIAEZE to F versus old J. Getting the reconfig 772 and 763 from EZE to BCN.

Is anybody able to book this fare via GRU on the way back? ITA shows it as a valid routing but can't replicate on AA or OTAs.
Thanks

Can you get longer stopovers on this route in Miami or Scl?

I've booked a couple of these and have 1.5 days in SCL on the first trip, followed by 3 days on the second.

It was about €50 more, but worth it for me.

I booked AMS-LHR-JFK(overnight stopover)-MIA-SCL / GIG-JFK-LHR for £1166. I want to visit in SCL, SAO and RIO so I then booked an avios redemption in J for SCL-GRU (20000 avios and £19 for a ticket pricing at £800 :S) and paid £23 cash for GRU-GIG.

I can price this deal up return to lima or cusco, but i would not mind an open jaw back from GIG (or La Paz but I dont think La Paz is in the fare).

Does anyone know if it is possible?

Can anyone tell me how you can find fares like these ? I've been looking for all sorts of combinations like this, but never found one.

That is for RDM (redeemable miles) not EQM (elite qualifying miles). It *should* still work as long as you have the two TATL segments within the timeframe.
