-Due to technical limitations we cannot easily route across different continents. We recommend to split the route into two different routes, if this is possible. If you absolutely have to route across different continents you can do the following:+Due to technical limitations we cannot easily route across different continents. You can either split your route into two routes, one for each continent or you can use the straight line (beeline) mode for the segment that crosses the border.
  
-- disable all avoidances (avoid highwaysferriestaken the same road twice, etc.+It should be noted that we usually move the continent border to match country borders. For example between Europe and Asia you cannot easily switch from Europe to Russia. The border crossing to Russia usually needs quite some preparationyou should know which crossing you are using in advanceand the crossing can take several hoursThe same applies for the border crossing to Turkey (instead of using the Bosporus)Other continent crossings require one to book a flight or a ferry.
-- change the parameter in the address bar of your browser from ''ch.disable=true'' to ''ch.disable=false''+
  
-**Attention:** the calculated routes might contain forbidden turns.+We have no way to know which crossing is the best for your needs, so we think it's OK to live with the continent split. Feel free to let us know in our forum if you have a different opinion and how you would approach it.
