I was looking at a 5-sector multi destination trip recently.

It was a long return trip with a 2 open jaws, some week-long stopovers, and about 8 flights over 3 continents...

...Except when I look at the itinerary, it gets ticketed as 2 fares! (wtf!)

My tech question is: When does an itinerary get ticketed as several fares, and when does it get ticketed as 1, 2 or 3? Are there any rules on combining fares?

Is it possible to have more than 1 open jaw in the one itinerary?
