Just trying to book the following:

Miami -> Los Angeles -> Sydney -> London -> New York -> Miami

I thought This would be three continents, wouldn't you?

But oh no, the plane from Sydney to London has to land to refuel in Bangkok. I'm not leaving the plane but guess what I've just added an extra continent for smelling the local air through the open door ;->

Surely AA are wrong - this is *the* dumbest rule.
