Update. I called today to change EWR-YYZ to a evening flight. First the rep offered to put me on AC. Then as he was completing booking he tells me this leg was against UA rules. But he will Do it because agent last night already did it. So I guess this a great case of HUCA. Thanks AJK

Much to learn my friend and you would be wise not to post in absolutes until you do

I'm sure you know a lot more about this stuff than me, but i have worked some really crazy Itinerarys with UA miles, and i know the "Rules", and how to get around them Pretty well.

Ah, that I knew.

I thought he was talking about a rule not allowing travel on AC.

You neglected to mention the fact that it's a one way ticket this whole time?

I thought I mentioned that in the first post when I wrote my route. I'm sorry for any misunderstanding.

Nah was implied. Especially after the second post (mine).

I have added quite a few times legs to an award booking.

Once I needed to add a WAW-FRA leg to a FRA-NYC booking for the day before (about 18 stop), and the agent said that it can not be done because its to a long stop. HUCA and the next agent did it gladly

Sorry, just had to stand up for my boy. And he is very knowledgeable of UA. I'd say top 20 members easy.

Lol.
He posted elsewhere the same q and it was rt. As was said there, you can add hnl-phl-TLV-phl but you will have to pay your own way to hnl

Free legs.
I think he also had a post about how to make a circle trip using a free one way in certain situations.
