Examples of 5th freedom flights
 
Can anyone give other examples of flights that stop in an intermeadiate country before going to their home country and are allowed to buy a ticket just for the intermeadiate city? I can only think of 2 but I'm sure there are more.

JFK-YVR-HKG on CX
JFK-FRA-SIN on SQ

They are many. The ones that easily come to my mind:

YYZ-NYC-SCL Lan
PEK-BKK-CAI Egyptair
HAN-BKK-CDG Air France
LIM-SCL-EZE-GRU Gol Linhas Aereas
DXB-KHI-KUL Malasya
FCO-CDG-GRU Varig (early this year, now discontinued)

And so on.....

there are some threads in the 1W and * forums about such routings.

Hmm, I think ICN-LAX-GRU is another one for Korean Air.

I have flown Czech Airlines DXB-CMB. My wife and I were the only Caucasians starting in DXB and they thought we must surely be transit passengers that forgot to reboard.

It was quite odd to hear everything in Czech again as I use CSA quite often in Europe.

And NRT-JFK-GRU for JL

AA and UA either did, or AA still may fly MVD-EZE.

IAH-MOW-SIN on SQ may be the more interesting of them ex-USA.

DL runs a bunch of flights through DKR such as CPT, JNB and NBO (or, planned to).

Probably the most unique? Zimbabwe Airways PEK-SIN-HRE.

A lot of airlines fly BKK-HKG... Jordanian, Eithad, Emirates, China Airways, Ethiopian, Kenya Airways but this list may be incorrect as this is strictly from memory. The list is surely not complete, either.

SQ has plenty of them. In addition to the ones already mentioned above, they also have LAX-NRT vv, SFO-ICN vv, YVR-ICN vv, NRT-BKK vv to name a few more.

Bob'sYourUncle Oct 27, 2008 8:27 am

LA MAD-FRA vv

Cheapest fares usually in that market, plus wide-body with AVOD.
