This actually makes it a lot easier! TW is involved, they didn't fly to DAR, and we've eliminated all the points they served west of Guam. Therefore, we must be heading eastward. PA had an extensive network in Africa in those days, so now it's going to be a matter of choosing the correct stops.

TW 707 GUM-HNL-LAX-JFK
PA 707 JFK-ACC-DLA-EBB-DAR

Let me help you out here. TWA did indeed fly to DAR in 1969, as did PA. And, although PA had a much larger African network than TW, in this instance it's Pan Am we're departing out of Guam with, then connecting to TWA. The overall connection works much better than doing it the other way around.

Of the cities you've picked to route through in your answer, rather surprisingly only JFK is correct. Indeed, it's the connection point.

So armed with this additional information, and again benefitting from the power of elimination, I expect your next submission will be much closer to the mark - if not spot on.

Good luck!
