Three legs, 10 questions, 10 countries of Oceania: that is expedition #1022, flown at the Medium level. First Capitals (3 questions), then Flags (3 questions), and to finish Find the country (4 questions).

The Medium setting widens the pool and keeps the wrong answers on the same continent: neighbours are not far away.

The full route, drawn from capital to capital as the questions come, measures 32,710 km: 9 hops in all.
