Hi,
No, the Kendo UI multiselect won't allow you to select the same item multiple times. The multiselect uses under the hood a <select multiple> which also doesn't allow selecting the same item multiple times. A possible solution is to have two items e.g. AUS (departure) and AUS (arrival).
You may consider opening a new feature request in
our feedback portal. This will allow us to track the user interest in this feature and prioritise accordingly.
