Hi.  I was flying a route from Miami to New York, and a waypoint called (DPK/15) was input into my FMC when I selected the STAR TRANS DPK for JFK Airport.  When I hit DPK, it threw me off of my route!  I was unable to land.  Should waypoints like this be deleted?

No. I think it's a bug. If I'm flying a route and decide to fly directly to a waypoint that is a part of the STAR/TRANS, it will often delete all waypoints until the one after, the waypoint I was wanting to fly direct to. Sad

Redo the STAR/TRANS or just the TRANS and see if that gets you there.
