re: Cheating with connecting fares while booking flights

If you told them at the gate, I really don't see why they would care? Its not that cool to just not show up for your flight, as said they may wait on you and could otherwise potentially fill it with someone else (not likely with Covid).

Yeah, I did it before I even knew skiplaging was a thing. I thought about calling when I landed and telling them I was going to miss the next flight, but just said F it. The gate agent did ask me about it when I checked in for my return flight. I told her I wasn't feeling well when I landed and decided to just stay there for the weekend with family.

The whole trip saved me around $120 doing it that way. Not sure I'd do it again since the airlines have wised up to it.
