Does it count as 2 stopovers or 3 stopovers?
Does it count as 5 segments or 4 segments?
My guess is 5 segments and 2 stopovers. I would like to check with everyone
Far better to ask RTW *ONE* - *GLOB* questions in one of the dedicated threads.
For any one trip, better to have all questions in one thread. People can then follow the questions/changes/problems/errors. Some people start there own thread for a specific trip.
Your questions have been asked and answers in these threads.
People ask questions in all these threads, but often not on the thread topic, so some what random.
RTW do not have stopovers as such. Just segments. Stop over vs transits can change real taxes.
Are specific rules for transiting 1 IATA TC sub area going to another IATA TC sub area.
