Again, we’re running into the issue of is the OTU small trade or big trade.

All of the trade rules in all the supplements are oriented towards PC scale ships; ie: free traders.

If there’s a LOT of trade between systems in the OTU, then pretty much any passage you ant is available, presuming the systems in question are large enough to warrant the traffic. Akin to airline travel in the US today. The PC-scale stuff is equivalent small single aircraft bush pilots or charters, which is all well and fine, but I don’t hire a bush pilot to fly between NY and London.

If not, travel on small PC-scale ships is all there is.

(and I contend that the OTU simply could not exist with so little trade between systems).
