nw.com flight segment display
Is there a way to get the website to display more than 4 segments? I would like to use it to "force" the routing both to and from Europe using eith MSP or MEM (rather than DTW)
Thanx

Depending on what type of routing you want, choose "multi city" on the home page. Then build your own connections and pray to the pricing gods that the system prices it as a through-fare instead of point-to-point!

This might belong in MR, but are there any guidelines to follow when using multi-city so that the fare prices as a through fare, and not a bunch of point to points?
