I assume that it has something to do with a foreign airline picking up and dropping off passengers in another country. Am I warm?
Cabotage.
Very warm.
For countries that have this. Foreign airlines may not carry passengers between two points inside the country. For example Air Canada cannot carry passengers between say EWR and SFO, even if the passenger leaves the country in between the two end points on the same trip.
In other words AC can't sell a single ticket that includes a routing like EWR-YYZ-SFO but there is nothing stopping Joe pax from buying EWR-YYZ and YYZ-SFO as seprate tickets.
