The overall conclusion of this site is that when you have time and can afford the luxury of leisurely travel, a stopover (well why not make it two) is the more civilised way to go.

Whilst we provide you with a guide to what routes are available so that you can research yourself the possible stopover points and routes viavia, we have also researched a few routes and stopover locations for that free tropical beach paradise or free ancient cultural site.
On routes, we have looked at a few of the most attractive stopover points for specific routes. We have compiled flight time, airline lists and costs for each flight segment. A summary table for each researched route shows total cost for a two night stopover in each selected destination and comparison of the possible stopover points. Just in case you don't fancy a stopover but want to know the cheapest business class option, we had a look at that too.

Basic info you will always want for a stopover location is what visa you need, how to transfer from the airport to closest points of interest, how much it will cost for a hotel and of course what are the unmissible sights, sounds, smells and experience that are not to be missed. This site is not a full scale travel guide but We provide all that in a simple one page summary and even add up the potential total cost of breaking your journey for a couple of nights.
