A stopover is an additional point where you stay longer than a certain period of time (internationally this is usually 24 hours).
So AAA-BBB(destination)-CCC(>24 hour stopover)-AAA is a valid routing.
Note in this case BBB or CCC can be considered the destination and the other is the stopover.

But as mentioned earlier do not do a RTW. You need to return in similar direction that you came from.
Thanks so much! This makes all the sense to me now. Sorry I am a slow learner!

The system keeps saying the accounts don't match... then I finally went to each account and checked. One with prefix Mrs. , while the other one Ms. Could they be so dumb not to allow even that???
