No worries. So, that brings us right back to the original question: what are some good Z5 stopovers with low taxes/surcharges? It seems a shame to not maximise the chance to explore as widely as possible by using the full number of stopovers (whether that's 3 locations on a Z2-Z5-Z2, or 5 on a Z2-Z5-Z5-Z2, or even a full-blown Z2-Z5-Z5-Z5-Z2: which is still only the same base cost as a Z2-Z6-Z2!) but I don't really want to get hit with €300 surcharges just for picking the wrong destination, when I don't really mind where I end up. The only Z5 location I'd prefer to avoid is Azerbaijan, solely because I've been there before — anywhere else is open. All suggestions welcome!

Indeed, thanks. I'd also noticed that DKR-DAM and DRK-BEY go via LIS as well.
