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
Apparently ALA is the new DME on the US award chart...
