Expedia is also offering connections and flights that apparently don't exist, because they simply don't exist on the LH or LX site when trying to create and book an itinerary there, for example DUS-ZRH-GVA and vv. It's getting a bit annoying and frustrating, so what is the problem and what is causing this? As we move forward, with all the whole technology available now, researching and booking flights should be getting easier, not more difficult.
I am usually hesitant booking a flight with someone other than the actual carrier. Been told to abstain doing this because of repercussions if the flight experiences any changes or undesirable problems.
Now I am hearing to consider Expedia and Google to find and book travel......What gives?
Appreciate any explanations. Thank you in advance.
