What is a Surface Sector?
A surface sector is when you travel independently between two flight points en-route to your final destination
What does that mean?
This means you will fly in and out of a different city or country. In other words you will travel between them by other means, perhaps by train, bus or boat or occasionally a Low Cost Carrier.
What's so good about that?
By choosing the right overland journey you can see and experience more of a country. A round the world trip should be more about seeing things you’ll never see again, rather than rushing through airports and sitting on buses ‘just to get there’. Really “see” the countries you go to rather than just “visit”.
Is it cheaper?
Can be, but by embracing a slower form of travel and using local transport, you can get a much larger feel for a country or continent. Also your money tends to stay local rather than straight into the hands of some massive and rapacious multi-national corporation. We think this is a good thing. Whatsmore they don’t usually cost any more than single stops, so you can get more destinations out of your RTW for a similar price. Also by doing some sections of your RTW journey overland, you can visit regions & countries that wouldn’t have otherwise been possible at the very well-priced fare you have paid!
