I flew into Ayers Rock and out of Alice Springs. It will be quite worrying if we get limited to 16 including open jaw segments.
since each surface sector requires a 'coupon' ( yes , even E tickets have coupons) and I believe the restriction on sector numbers is related to the maximum number of coupons that can be handled on an ET then my belief is , yes , the fare will be restricted to 'x' number of sectors
including surface sectors
