What the journey actually looks like

- 20% of the services we sell on this corridor run through without a change. The remaining 80% involve one connection.
- How far it really runs
- The route covers 601 km against 522 km in a straight line, a detour of 15 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.

- Connections are made at Balombo, Huambo, Cuíto, Catchiungo. The gap between arriving and leaving is 73 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
- If the connection is missed

- First and last departure
- The first service of the day leaves Luena at 06:52 and the last at 07:30, across 5 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.

Where these numbers come from
Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.
