Hidden city from SFO to ORD

[raccah]

Hello All,

Please excuse the newbie question. But I powered up kayak to see a flight from SFO to ORD, no issues there. They displayed a flight from SFO to ORD to MKE! On the way home MKE to ORD to SFO! WOW!

Anyway, the question I have is that if I get off early on the inbound flight they have no way to force me to stay on the plane and not deplane in Milwaukee. But on the return portion, If I do not start in MKE, can/will they not allow me on the plane?

I understand this may well be a loaded question and that this is all suspect, but is this an idiot idea or worth a shot?

Thanks!

Don't think you can miss the first part of a flight. I believe it has already been posted multiple times that missing the first leg of a trip cancels the whole ticket.

Again I live in California. So I will go from SFo to ORd and skip the flight from ORD to MKE. That should be no issue, essentially they throw u off the plane anyway to get it ready - so they could acre less.

So, do they care or not about the ORd to MKE (inbound)?
And do they care about the MKE ORD outbound?

In the end, what I want is SFO to ORD back to SFO

Thanks!

Thought I answered. Inbound should not be a prob. Outbound, I don't think it matters how short the flight is, you miss the first leg and the rest of your tix gets cancelled.

This ain't a hidden city ticket in the slightest. You will be stuck in ORD until you purchase a new ticket home.
