Newbie question on not completing a ticketed route.
I fly SWA alot & am elite with NW, but I'm taking my first flight with United this week, from MCI to PSP, with a stop in Denver. My question is this - on my return flight, can I get off the plane in Denver & not finish the flight to KC, without being charged the full-fare price or having the ticket changed/canceled? (I booked a one-way ticket from Denver to KC for the following day to finish the flight.) I called the UAL phone line & it was even suggested by the rep to do it, although she was not the friendliest person. I'm just curious as NW won't allow this practice - they will charge you as if you made a change to your reservation & it will be for a full-fare ticket. Just curious if anyone has had any experiences with this issue. Thanks in advance for any insight anyone can provide to my question. (Also, I tried 2 different searches for this topic & could get nothing returned.)
