Currently the multi city tool is allowing me to start a trip

SYD-PER week stopover
PER-LHR

I thought this wasn’t within the OWA rules. Will it reject once I go to book or is it allowed in your country of origin? All prelim plans at the moment so don’t want to go down a route that’s not worth it

There's not a separate OWA booking portal. It's just normal bookings and if it qualifies then you'll get capped. If you want to test if its valid, go make a dummy set of booking in economy and if the multi city caps it when it shoukd have definitely gone over then you're all set.

Domestic connections are only blocked if you try and force a same day connection where it isn’t offered automatically in a point-to-point booking.

For example if you plug in MEL-LHR and the system offers you MEL-PER-LHR that’s fine. But if you use multi-city to try and force MEL-PER then PER-LHR it will be blocked.

Adding a 24 hour stopover or next day or whatever is fine. The block only applies to same day.

The above is for regular travellers… those with access to hobart can usually get around the restriction.
