I saw this on a website I frequent ...
Let's us fly free:
A few years ago I was flying from Detroit to Charlotte. Prices were
higher than I would have liked, so I checked a couple of other
nearby destinations. Found that a flight to Greensboro (two hours
away by car) was much cheaper, yet somehow still connected through
Charlotte (Detroit -> Charlotte -> Greensboro).
So I said screw it, bought a one-way, and carried on my bag, with
plans to abandon the flight in Charlotte.
All went well. As I was walking through Charlotte airport, I passed
the Greensboro gate and heard the agent asking for volunteers (the
flight was oversold).
So with a heavy heart and Oscar-winning sympathy for the gate
agent's predicament, I agreed to give up my Greensboro ticket for an
extra $200 in vouchers. Then I skated out of the airport feeling as
though I'd beat the unfathomable system for once.
