IMHO
- if a restriction is not in the fare rules
- and it is not in the general conditions of carriage
- then the restriction is not enforceable
Because those two 'documents', together with the itinerary, make up the contract between the purchaser and the airline issuing the ticket

But I have no intention of attempting to purchase a Global Explorer ticket any time soon, so cannot test it

And anyway - the restriction was purposely removed from the fare rules; presumably NOT because someone thought "Oh we don't need that because it is implied with this sort of ticket"
