Thank you, that is very interesting; I had never heard of Point of Commencement before.
So on an RTW that may have commenced many months ago, is the POC the start of the RTW, or the start of travel on the day of travel?
In the example I was working on, the travellers are starting in OSL in August, but the BKK-SYD segment on SEP 19 is the first segment on that day of travel.
So is the POC OSL or BKK?
Do you know if this POC issue is common or rare? If common, it makes EF searches unreliable.
Thanks,
