The Cross Channel Car Ferry might be considered a Multi Sector operation with up to a dozen sectors flown per day, by one crew.

Lydd to Le Touquet was flown at 1000ft. with the return at 1500ft. The minimum AP level was also 1500ft. This allowed less than 5 minutes use of AP per 20 minute flight, inbound, ONLY !

Some did not bother for so short a time !
