taking only the second leg of a flight
« on: December 21, 2013, 06:33:52 PM »
Ive been trying to get a cheap flight from NYC to FLL but I havent found any. But I just found a United flight from Philly to FLL with a stopover in Newark. So my question is will United not let me on if I didnt take the first part of the flight? has anyone done this before with United?

if you skip any leg of a trip then you lose the whole thing
Always use an Amex, you'll thank me one day.

Why do some people find it so hard to search. All you do is type something in an press enter. Very easy.

Thank you for playing, unfortunately you didn't win the grand prize this time.

If you are talking about ZFV you may be fine.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

i couldn't find this on search...or maybe i didn't know what to search for...

i need to go from MCO to ORD, i found a ticket for MCO-ORD-ROC for less than MCO-ORD. instead of completely abandoning the ORD-ROC flight, can I call united when I land and change it to a later date?
