Easter Island-Global Explorer
Is Easter Island considered South Pacific or South America for the Global Explorer (34k miles)?
Do they count forced overnights in Lima as stopovers? What if the flight leaves just after midnight, less than 24 hours stopover?
IPC-SCL-LIM (forced overnight)-PEM (Puerto Maldonado)
PEM-CUZ
CUZ-LIM (18 hour layover because I worry about flight delays)-GRU
surface to GIG
Then we leave the region GIG-JFK-LHR.
How long do I have to wait for them to price the itinerary, just booked it.
