Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

One stopover.
Some years ago, I did an LGLOB34 with -MCO-ORD-[surface]-LAX-. The surface involved a number of stops with buses, flights and trains through Iowa, DEN, YVR, DFW and down the west coast. as far as the GLOB was concerned, it was just a straight ORD-LAX.
