Nope, if you miss the first leg of a trip, they cancel the rest of it.

On the return trip you can get off the plane and not get onto your last segment though. Since you are in Kalamazoo, I assume that you are flying through DTW. You have to start your flight in XXX-DTW-YYY, but on the return you can go YYY-DTW and get off the plane.

But if you have checked luggage, your checked luggage will go to your final destination, even if you don't fly that segment. 100% positive bag match does not happen on connecting flights.
