Most of the flights have a long layover in one of the directions. Some flights have 2 stops in one of the directions.
For example:
Feb 12 to Feb 27 (10 - 5)
^^ This flight has a 10 hour layover on the way there, 5 on the way back.
Feb 12 to Feb 28 (10 - 2/1)
^^ This flight has a 10 hour layover on the way there, and then a 2 hour layover and a 1 hour layover on the way back.
I've seen better layover options towards April and May. Some dates in April and May have just 1 layover each way, with more ideal layover lengths.
Here are some other example dates, which can give an idea of the various layover options available in February and March.
