So here is a question for you all... if you are on a 4 sector trip and drop the last 2 sectors would the airline try to sue in the same way? The same principles apply
This depends on the circumstances. Say that’s an AMS-LHR-BKK ticket and whilst in BKK you have an emergency and need to come home. Your ticket is non refundable and non changeable so you have no option but to buy a one way ticket with another airline for the trip. Imagine the headlines, passengers brother dies in car crash airline sues him for return half of the fare on a cheap ticket....... it’s not going to happen. If however you have a LAX-PHX-DFW-DCA-BOS trip and you decide to curtail it in DFW and you booked thst because it’s $200 but a LAX-DFW ticket was $650 then I’d say the airline has every right to come to you for the $450 or have sanctions on your frequent flyer account or even ban you from the airline. A few high profile sanctions like this might make people think twice of hidden city ticketing and not using the last flight.
