I know that making several jumps to evade pursuers happened quite a bit in the EU novels. There is no mention of this in the movies of course, but even if there were multiple jumps on a single trip one would assume that they would have been ‘edited out’ for time and efficiency. There is also the matter of Hyperspace trade routes, which are definitely a thing in the Prequels. I imagine that these would be single-jump trips that are deemed very safe and widely used, implying that there are less-safe and little-used routes. That’s what I imagine this one is, necessitating a great deal of care and dropping back at every turn to scan for potential obstacles.
