    Origin and Destination need to be valid IATA three letter airport codes. If the flight has more than one sector, then each sector with times need to be entered on each line. Dep. Time and Arr. Time are always entered in LOCAL times as they are at each airport.

    Use the Dep. +Days and Arr. +Days columns to specify if any of the movement times occur on a day other than the departure date from the first airport in the routing.

    The Weight and Volume are populated according to the values set in the aircraft type.
