It probably won’t be easy flying from Guayaquil to Genoa, so you’re surprised to learn that a one airline can get the job done all by itself via a single hour and a half connection. Two aircraft types will be involved. There will be three stops on the first leg, followed by a nonstop flight into Genoa. Identify the airline, all of the enroute stops and the aircraft types.

59. (1976) You need to fly from Bombay to Dubai next Wednesday. Only two direct flights operate that day. One of them, with Air India, is not available. The other one is however – in First Class no less. It’s operated with a Boeing 720, quite possibly the only 720 serving Bombay at that time. The flight makes one enroute stop. Identify the airline and the enroute stop.

Although the regional geopolitical situation would seem to make it unlikely (hence my original guess of MCT), geography certainly suggests Karachi/KHI as the intermediate stop between BOM and DXB

Geography wins out in 1976. Here's the schedule:

Saudia SV 759 Bombay (BOM) 730p-840p Karachi (KHI) 945p-1030p Dubai (DXB) Boeing 720B We only
