genuinely curious if this is a bug or if there is a rationale for this pricing. Had some issue with this maybe 6-7years ago, but suddenly am noticing it to be occurring much more frequently...specifically when trying to book international routes. Obviously if I have to connect to arrive in (say) Hong Kong, I want the airline to acknowledge contractually that my end destination in HKG, in case my flight to the hub is delayed, but not sure its worth doubling the ticket price.
How does it price if you use Multicity itinerary?
Segment 1 A - Hub
Segment 2 Hub - C

Does it come out as 700, 1400, or something in between (or higher)?
Is this for a one way, or Round Trip?
