I did not fully understand the implications last year that allowed for 2 stops in Asia instead of 1 stopover plus a transit between SWP and Europe. This is a very big change imo. And it also states that in the EF version of the fare rules (my copy is from Sept 2018)
The only problem reading the EF version of the rules is that 2/3 of the 2500 lines appear to be concerned about travel within the African continent and within specific Asian countries in the transfer section. I just plan to depart and return to SEZ and avoid the rest of Africa. I wonder if one can ignore the transfers section. Any of our ticketing experts (CALCHAS or JAXBA) care to comment?
