All US based airlines except for AA would allow a stopover in London in your situation.

What is wrong with this itin? It keeps erroring out on UA.
I am using an open jaw for the first stopover and then using the stopover for the "free one way" to HNL. All segments are available when searched separately.

you can't do an OJ on a stopover only on destinations.
as crazy as it sounds, it is true. dunno why bloggers haven't mentioned it...

if you do NYC-GVA ZRH-NYC or even ZRH-PHL, cool. but you can't OJ mid stopover.


if anyone disagrees, please post a screenshot not just arguments. I know the whole thing sounds crazy but its a fact

Not yet. Want to make sure it's a legal routing first.
Is it still possible to OJ on a stopover?

Look what happens when I make GVA the destination, open jaw from TLV-NYC, stopover in NYC and continue to HNL. (110K)
It works. i.e., the issue was that the OJ was on the stopover as opposed to the destination, not multiple stopovers.
