Skipping first leg of flight?
I'm trying to book a flight from Toronto to a caribbean destination. Direct, it's more expensive than having a +20 hour stopover in Montreal. When I try to book it directly from Montreal, the cheaper option is then a +20 hour stopover in Toronto.
Would I be able to buy the YUL-YYZ-DESTINATION ticket and skip the first leg? Or would that cancel everything? And why would they price it this way, in a way that no matter which city you choose, the cheaper option is the non-direct flight?
Thanks
