Stopover and Mile Accumulation
 

I have a business trip in late May from either JFK-DPS or LAX-DPS.
This trip is on the company's tab and the price range is capped at 2200.

I am trying to do the routing my own with a week long stopover at NRT or HND.

Ultimately I would like to fly the long way from JFK (through euro) LAX is back up option, stop in NRT/HND for one week and continue on to DPS. Dates leaving May 25. Returning from DPS-LAX June 23.

I am having trouble searching ITA and finding anything worth selecting.

If anyone could shine me in the right direction that would be great.
Also would like to put all the miles into one carrier if possible.

Thankyou

what price do you get using multi city for your dates? post the ticket & ask for help to max the mi....

i see $2250 jfk-nrt-dps-jfk for mid week flights on aa & jal....

orbitz will show you many carriers....

w/o the nrt, it was ~ $1700

I am getting the same. I was trying to book it with a stopover instead of doing multi-city. However is that essentially the same thing?

I would rather go with oneworld so I can do the platinum status challenge.

looks like the trip would get a tad over 20k bis, so would complete the challenge.....multi city is the way to book the stopover....good luck...

you could try booking 1 ways to get the stopover....if you leave/return to lax, you will be short on the challenge...

The NRT-DPS leg, would that be NRT-(HKG)-DPS? Otherwise that's just Garuda (in other words, presumably no useful miles for the OP). They do fly from both NRT and HND though.

Yes. Would like to avoid garudA. Trying to complete with one world. Spent some time on the phone with an agent from AA who nailed a great routing through nrt then connecting to dps with mh
