The airline has to publish a routing from a city for AA to (officially ticket it). It's one of their unique rules.

Ah haaaa. Thanx! I see, though its not totally clear if that applies in this situation considering that the flight we're referring to is from KUL-AUH-AMM then to TLV.
But taking your word for if... so the easiest way to do this would be to:
1) avoid AUH
2) travel via AUH but use Malaysia Airlines (@ your own risk)
3) Just knock TLV off the AA itinerary & use 4.5k Avios for that leg
That right?
Possible that moish is somehow booking the itinerary w/o TLV and then adding it in later using his "eyelashes"??
(moish you can help us out here
)
I'm not stam yenting, I'm looking into Asia 2 for the summer coming from TLV. BTW
