wow, that's a combination that would not have come to my mind

4G: RB incorrect, 74L incorrect (although you can hold that thought), DAM incorrect
4H: 727 incorrect -- that being said, I think the "pleasant surprise" with a DAM routing would have been a Caravelle from somewhere in Europe, but the reference OAG doesn't show any airline operating DAM-BEY
