hi all,

some questions about ex-TPE fares to JFK. the ex-TPE (I) fares I am seeing for June are almost 60% cheaper then the HKG originated ones - and using the same flights to JFK!

would it be possible to book the following:

TPE-HKG in May
HKG-JFK in June
JFK-HKG in June (~8 days later)
HKG-TPE in July

is an "extended stopover" in HKG allowed in the middle of this RT ticket?

2nd question - is it possible to "miss" both TPE connections - ie just board the plane in HKG for the flight to JFK, and be able to get my bags off the plane in HKG on the way?

thanks for any/all help!!
