In that case, each has to be to a full stop.

And if you don't land on another planet, does it count as cross-space time?

So if you fly to the International Space Station and stay for more than
90 days, does that mean you can't fly home with passengers onboard?

It is a commercial certificate. Only that portion of the flight above
100 km may be counted as space flight time. Any portion of the flight
below 100 km is logged as IFR flight time.

What about wormholes? Run into a wormhole, return before you left. How
do you justify X number of hours of flight time when the tach runs
backwards?

Only if the Space Station Wheel is certified for spinning.

And I thought multiengine would be expensive...


Maybe not. I found out that a commercial airship ticket would be more
expensive. A space shuttle certification is accomplished in a simulator.
