only thing could find was

nrt-cai(2day stop)
cai-ist
ist -ala
ala-ist-
ist-nrt
nrt-sdj

they said this would be 120,000 in bus for one person when it should be 30,000
when i questioned it they said the problem was cairo-however no other way to go in bus(its in august and oz flights blocked)
any ideas?would losing the stopover help?
thanks
in addition to belfordrocks - would this exceed MPM? (I might expect USDM replying that they will not accommodate routings outside MPM simply because there is no availability on a more direct service)
