Awesome, what airlines?

Some people have reported success through trying to find a clueless rep who will book you something which is technically not allowed.

Alternatively I think it would be allowed to book
Nyc-hkg
Open jaw
Syd-tlv
Stop
Tlv-nyc


And then book hkg-syd as a separate one way

Why is UA not letting me book this
EWR - MUC:
MUC - VCE: (stop)
VCE - ZRH:
ZRH - TLV:
TLV - FRA:
FRA - LHR:
LHR - EWR:(stop)
EWR - IAH:
IAH - HNL:

They are telling me with many huca I can't have 2 stopovers. Should I just book it without the 2nd stop and change it later (meaning TLV-HNL)

Because you can't have two stopovers?

Neither, that's a connection.
You have one stop in vce and one in ewr, which is not allowed
You could probably book
NYC-vce
Open jaw
Tlv-ewr
Stopover
Ewr-hnl

And book vce-tlv as a separate one way (in coach since the biz product adds nothing)

That doesn't mean it isn't against their routing rules.
