I was flying from FAY to ATL and Delta wanted $800 or something and only $180 to ORL via ATL from FAY. So I called and asked why I could buy a ticket that is for more than twice the distance, has a connection and it's a boatload cheaper when I'm flying through where I want to fly in the first place. But no matter what I said, she didn't seem to understand. I told her that I'll just book from FAY to ORL and get off at ATL. To which she said I wouldn't be able to get back on the plane to head to FAY from ATL.

This story make sense? I wanted to fly from A to B. But it cost $800. It costs $180 to fly from A to C via B. I figure I'll buy a ticket from A to C and get off in B but they said they wouldn't let me back on at B to get to A.

hahaha...that's crazy and I can't believe I posted that. Well, you all needed a good laugh now didn't you? :-)
