I cannot get a straight answer from United so I figured one of the travel experts here would be able to help me out....Just say I book a flight from London to NYC connecting thru Frankfurt. Now if I'm going to be in Germany around the date of the connecting flight, would I be able to just take that flight from Frankfurt to NYC without using the London-Frankfurt part. The reason I ask is because if I do end up being in Germany around that date, I do not want to have to book a flight to get back to London just so I can take a flight right back to Frankfurt en route to NYC if its not necessary. I'm hoping someone has either had experience with this or knows the answer so I can finalize my plans. Thanks in advance
