I found a flight that has a connection in Japan that’s cheaper than a direct flight to Japan. Is it legal to take that cheaper flight and leave the airport at the layover location as our final destination? Will they prevent us from taking the return flight?
It’s no illegal in the sense that the airline can’t put you in jail. On the other hand, it’s also not illegal for the airline to cancel the rest of your ticket (leaving you stranded) and choose never to do business with you every again.
