In other words, worst case scenario I will never reprice a JFK-LHR for 1000$, when I can find flights LIS-LHR for like 81 USD (just checked). I will just go to LIS and get back in a few hours.
I mean everyone knows that tickets can be repriced. People call customer service to try to find other legal ways before repricing. I`m not against them at all, I know its their job and they need to be official on the phone, but they should know that customers were not born yesterday
.
As I read in another thread, I can also try to take everything as carryon, and If they find it overluggage I`ll just try to gatecheck to LHR.
As hard as it might be for some people to understand, there are people who would go by the rules and ticket accordingly. While it might be possible (or not) to fly LIS-LHR-LIS for $2, that is something that not everyone will do.
However, if that works for you than go for it.
