Beginner Questions
 
Hi,

Sorry to ask these dumb questions but i need to know ( I read the rules but didnt get a clear answer).

1) When they say 4 sectors permitted within one continent, does it include the intercontinental flight ( Arrival & Departure)?

2) If I travel from let's say South Africa to London - does it count as a sector in Africa or Europe?? ( Is it point of departure or arrival that counts).

Thanks a million & happy travels

the answer is no for your question.
1) 4 segments WITHIN continent, therefore intercontinental is not one those 4.
2) same here

but stopover at entry/exit city count as stopover

I may be stupid but I didn't understand the answer to the original question.

How do we count continents?

At least for my rtw jan-jul 2000 every incoming flight was a sector. For example, the flight from Bangkok to Sydney was the first sector in Australia/Pacific.

Flights between continents are not counted as segments. Upon arrival in a continent, every flight is counted as a segment. The flight departing the continent is not counted.
