What type of ticket is issued for a trip with more than four air segments?

1. Direct ticket

2. Round trip ticket

3. Conjunction ticket

4. One-way ticket

The correct answer is: Conjunction ticket

A conjunction ticket is specifically designed for itineraries that involve multiple segments of travel, typically more than four, within a single journey. This type of ticket allows travelers to combine several one-way fares, which may include segments operated by different airlines or connecting various cities. This ticketing approach is particularly beneficial for travelers who have complex itineraries involving multiple stops or destinations. By utilizing a conjunction ticket, passengers can often achieve cost savings compared to purchasing individual tickets for each segment. In contrast, other ticket types serve different purposes: a direct ticket typically refers to a flight that has no layovers but may not specifically apply to itineraries with numerous segments; a round trip ticket is meant for travel originating and returning to the same location; and a one-way ticket covers travel from one point to another without a return journey. None of these options accommodate the complexity of multiple segments in the same way that a conjunction ticket does.
