Premex Said:

Exception To The Above: (As Rudi points out) If the only other and next flight out to your next destination is over 24 hours away, as long as you take that next flight, your current stop will not count against you as a stopover.
Now that is an interesting one in cases of low route frequency.

I just booked today the UA April 1 rtw starting LAX. Booked coach and am using SWU to upgrade it all, in fact UA have upgraded the booking already even tho it is not yet ticketed .. a great tip I learned this week from Premex. Never knew they'd do that. As long as I buy it direct thru UA (and I'll be using a UA 15% off coupon anyway) it does not need be PAID for until late March, but seats 15 A/B are mine until then, on all 5 x 747-400 legs.

Anywayt, that flight into HKG and Delhi leaves a few hours after it arrives and is a once a day.

HKG-DEL arrives 2.00am and leaves 3.34am. I suppose unless you are on the 3.45am that day you have made a "stopover". Or have I? What I am asking is if I arrive at 2am, and fly out the NEXT day at 3.45am, will they wear that as "next flight"?

What do others think?
