And QF1041 operating on Saturdays. Dep BME @ 13:15, Arr SYD @ 19:30.
However, note that these flights cross, so no way to do SYD-BME-SYD without spendina week in BME or travelling one way via PER.

The only update is calculating old/new Qantas SC earning for segments.

I've added the ability to use city codes like LON,NYC,WAS etc in the itinerary validator. The actual airport will be displayed below in the segment list. Eg. CAI-LON-VCE-LON-NYC will show in the list as CAI-LHR,LGW-VCE,VCE-LGW,LHR-JFK. Also added support to disallow transiting departure city (LHR-MAN-LHR-XXX is not allowed) or multiple departures from the originating country (MAN-CDG-LHR-XXX is invalid). Also the Nigeria/Ghana Africa rule should be fixed (is LHR-JNB/ACC-LHR-XXX valid? not sure on that one).
I've also added support to show all flights to/from a specific country in the Planner tool. eg. show all flights from France, use 'fr' in the From: field. The codes are the ISO two-digit country codes. Be prepared to wait if you choose 'us' as one of the values.

Just a bug or something wrong with my keyboard?

Edited to add: now, if the script did a little parsing of the string, to clean it up before processing, that probably would not hurt.
