15 + 20 points
New Take on an Old Riddle by Nan O'fith

This would've been much easier if travel websites let you set the minimum number of stops instead of the maximum but for some reason there isn't a market for that. I chose September 20th because it was a weekday far away from any holidays so I figured there'd be more flights available.
What has 4 legs in the morning? With the help of timezones, the following trip from Macon, GA to San Diego...
2 legs in the afternoon: Brisbane to Canberra
3 legs at night? Amsterdam to Thessaloniki (On November 5th to make sure it was night)

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, but that's no fun!

Brisbane to Sydney to Canberra

If you're in Amsterdam and want to get to Greece in the Middle of the night, this itinerary may be for you!

Thinking is not my style…
I was just pointing out an interesting let little known fact.
Geeze Déspîtë m¥ måstŒrfüll üse of a keyboard I still can not communicate intonation!
When flying/traveling the globe the shortest path between two points is an arc!
