Hinflug nach Los Angeles und der Rückflug von Los Angeles oder Flugstrecke hin: Frankfurt - Orlando und Flugstrecke zurück: Miami - Frankfurt.)" and "The Open Jaw An open-jaw flight is one that, in the simplest terms, flies from Point A to Point B, then from Point C home to Point A. Points B and C are often neighboring airports, or at least in the same general area. A sample open-jaw itinerary might be Atlanta - Seattle on the way out; Portland, OR - Atlanta on the way back. Another open-jaw scenario: you fly into and out of the same destination city, but your starting and finishing points are different, thus: Fly Point A to Point B; then fly Point B to Point C." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-03-20 19:45:21 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I guess I\'d use \"broken stay\" or something along those lines for \"gebrochene Aufenthaltsdauer\" HTH Alison -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-03-20 20:23:01 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To answer your question precisely: I\'d translate Gabelflüge as \"open-jaw flights\".
