So a bit a of pickle here. Need to get you back to KMIA but it would be a little easy to come back to america on the ninth flight so this is a bit harder on the final flight. I am not sure flight 10 can be done with 1 leg. Just put in the comments that it was 2 legs if necessary. Don't worry about coming home on the tenth flight. Have a little R and R in Chicago and take a flight back to Miami after a couple of days rest .
