Back- to-back or not?
Is this really illegal or just for travel agents. Back when CP was around my TA would book one ticket with CP and the other with AC. I would only use the outbound portion of each and it was still less expensive than a regular fare. Of course this was only worth while whenever a good seat sale was on. Especially for domestic travel. Since CP is gone my TA doesn’t offer this anymore since they claim to have been charged penalty fees by AC. One of their clients showed up at the check-in counter and presented the wrong thicket. AC charged him for the balance of the Y fare.
How could this be illegal if the AC web site or Destina permits someone to purchase back-to-back tickets without warning them? Where are these rules stated? I know a few people who still do this without any problems. Anybody out there that have had bad experiences with b-to-b?
Thanks
