* It is technically not allowed, but with enough HUCA and persistance it can be accomplished. YMMV.
** any stopover option would need to be done over the phone.

But I can also have two OJs? So:
TLV-EWR-SAN (destination)
SAN-EWR
YYZ-Tlv
Is that okay? The OJ needs to be less than 24 hours?
No.

Only allowed one stopover.
Okay thanks, I got it.
So if I want to make stops in three places, a good way would be:
TLV-EWR-SAN (destination)
SAN-EWR (stopover)
[separate ticket on Avios JFK-YYZ-JFK]
EWR-TLV?
Sorry for all the questions, it's the best way I learn :)

Well if you are only doing a one way to LHR then you cannot do a stopover as that requires a roundtrip. If you are doing a one way your layover needs to be less than 24 hours. If you are doing a roundtrip then you can do a stop can be more than 24 hours in MIAMI assuming your rep doesn't deem it out of the way.

Now if you need help finding flights go to the other thread for that..

I thought he was asking about a stopover on a OW. Aeroplan allows that?
