KVS,
Can you explain what "transfers" mean as a part of the fare - as I understand, no "free" transfers are offered nowadays, if one is transiting through Europe, from USA-Asia or vice-versa, correct?
From an LH fare:
Code:
[TRANSFERS]
2 TRANSFERS PERMITTED IN EACH DIRECTION IN EUROPE IN EACH DIRECTION. FARE
BREAK AND EMBEDDED SURFACE SECTORS NOT PERMITTED ON THE FARE COMPONENT.
It used to be different, some years ago...where one could avail of a free side-trip.
