Thank you.

If the rules are the same as PMUA, a single RPU is good for connecting flight until there is a 4 hour break OR a segment would return you to a previously visited airport.
So AAA-BBB-AAA requires 2 RPU -- in fact any itin returning to the departure city would require 2 RPUs.
BUT LAX-JFK-SFO-LAX with a quick (sub-4 hour) turn, LAX-JFK-SFO would be just 1 RPU. (one can substitute HNL for JFK)
Another situation LAX-XXX-....-SNA could be a single RPU.
