If I say I'll do a surface segment to Malaga, everything is fine. Is there something special about Gibraltar when on RTW fares?
There might be other reasons for that which have nothing to to with Gibraltar in particular.

For example:

- you have maxed out the number of Euorpean flights.
- your AONE4 starts at LHR so you can't fly LHR-XXX-LHR (point of origin rule)
