Have a flight from JFK to SFO Saturday, with a layover in CLT. I’m already in Charlotte for work today, can I skip the first flight and just stay here, and fly from CLT to SFO?

If you skip the first segment they will cancel all remaining segments. Same goes for a round trip - can’t skip the first flight.

The above replies are correct. You must call to rebook it, which unfortunately will refare it and incur a change fee if nonrefundable. But you have no other options really.

The only flight you can “safely” skip in an itinerary is the final one, because there are no further flights to cancel.

Part of the reason this is the case is to stop “hidden city ticketing” to prevent someone who wants to go from, say CLT-SFO but finds a cheaper fare on JFK-CLT-SFO and wants to just show up in CLT. As airlines sell fares based on demand between the origin and ultimate destination, showing up in an intermediate city mucks with their revenue model.

Would I still have to check into the first flight? What’s the process? I’m a travel noob, so thanks for the help

No - they won’t let you. If you miss your first flight they will cancel your entire ticket

^^^ Right you are

No they will cancel your remaining itinerary if you don’t show up for the first leg

First traveling gig?

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days.

Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA
