I was looking at flights on the route KHI-DXB-LHR-YYZ//BKK-PEN. I couldn't find anything that wasn't ridiculously priced and I went to ITA to investigate. For some reason, most of the flights I am looking at charge me the KHI-YYZ fare PLUS the YYZ-PEN fare even though I'm not flying YYZ-BKK-PEN rather just BKK-PEN!
Code:
Fare (A1): EK KHIYTO COW1 fare (rules) PKR 165150
Fare (B1): MH YTOPEN C fare (rules) C$4256.00

Of course, I will book the two itins seperately, but it was still quite shocking!
Cheers,
