The board is in two parts, and each player has a counter on each part. The outer edge is where the player moves when in a city, and is where money can be changed and tickets purchased. The inner part is a world map marked with travel routes between major cities. The map also shows remote locations (such as [[Heard Island]]) to which a player might be diverted by a "storm" following the drawing of a "risk" card by landing on a hazard marker while travelling.
