These are rare outliers and have to be clearly explained during ticket purchase. Could be also check in agent mistake. If such connection occurs in 3rd country where passenger does not have right to enter, he/she will be denied boarding on such ticket and it’s an easy case for small claims court to win compensation from the airline.
