American Airlines Send Man $1000 Bill For Skipping Flights
“Hidden City” or “Throw-Away” ticketing is not illegal, but it is against an airline’s contract of carriage that you pledge to abide by when you book a ticket. The concept is simple. Airlines often charge more for direct flights so when booking, say, Los Angeles to New York, it may end up costing more for that flight alone than booking Los Angeles to New York to Orlando, even though the LA to NY flight is the same.

Perhaps if the airlines price flights logicaly and this would not be a thing?!?
Logic... I am not sure that word is in their dictionary!
Maybe they’ll put it in their dictionary if it can get them more money?
That's what they are doing. They are offering a discount on the less convenient, non-direct flight.
I don’t see how AA can win as they weren’t damaged in any way. They lost no revenue and saved on fuel.
It seems like you can get away with it a few times before they catch on!
i remember several years back ,having a passenger tell me it was cheaper to buy "through" ticket for a a flight that went iah/ord/yul, and just get off the plane during the layover in ord,which was his destination anyway,then just not re board..he did it all the time he said..that was however, prior to a much more security oriented system and tickets that were scrutinized.."direct" flights and nonstop are often confused by passengers,and they are not the same..its just that airlines (befor people were booking thmeselves onlne)would forget to clarify you were on a flight that had a so called "stopover..
