MEL-PER-SYD is an illegal routing, only 1 flight allowed between PER and SYD/MEL. Change the itin to something like this and you get to keep virtually all your stops: ICN-HKG-LHR-DXB-LHR-IST-LHR-YVR-JFK-DFW-ANC-DFW-SJU-JFK-SYD-PER-ADL-SYD-BOM-HKG-ICN |
The rule is the following:
113N . 4. TRAVEL MUST BE IN A CONTINUOUS FORWARD 114N . DIRECTION BETWEEN AREA 1-AREA-2-AREA 3. (IATA Area 1 is North/South America, Area 2 is Europe/Middle East/Africa and Area 3 is Asia/Australia). But that rule doesn't require that all travel in the area of origin be completed prior to leaving an area. What it does prohibit is re-entering an area after leaving it; but the area of origin is required to be re-entered (as the fare must terminate in the continent of origin, and in fact in the country of origin except as allowed by the listed exceptions in the rules). I interpret that to mean that with an Asia origin you can do Australia either first or last in the routing (but you couldn't do ICN-HKG-JNB-SYD-LHR-JFK-HKG-ICN for example). |
