Amazing isn't it? Not sure how the airlines get away with this type of pricing. You could buy a one-way atl-mem on american (through charlotte) for $185 the thursday or friday before the game.

The $86 MEM-ATL-CAE for the sunday after the game really isn't bad, I'd probably book it. While you're not supposed to do this with flying (called hidden city ticketing), if you're worried about it just don't put in your delta frequent flyer number. As long as you don't make a habit out of it you should be okay.

yep, been playing around with this and saw that one. Might keep an eye on that.

not at all, only issue is the time as I'd be getting back to my bed after midnight and I'd prefer not to take Monday off.


Is there a site or way to find flights sorted by layover? Like, could I find a trip from Atlanta to [anywhere] that lays over in memphis and do the same thing of just not taking the 2nd leg?

They won't care if you hidden city a route once or twice, but if you make a habit of it...and on a regular basis, you'll be flagged. No matter if you have your FF# in there or not.
