My partner & I are flying back from Aruba to the US on a delta SkyMiles hidden city/ skip lagged fair before getting on our revenue flights to client sites. Can I cancel our second legs after landing?

You can cancel; you’re not going to get points back. You might actually owe more points.

You actually booked these through your main accounts? 😂 RIP

I’m diamond and he’s platinum. We booked the flights back to two separate places (cheaper) both connecting through ATL, plan is to get off in Atlanta and then we have tickets to our different two client sites. My Q is when we land can I cancel the second legs to get those points back? Or is it begging for trouble?

I once did this only my partner took last leg and I got off. An agent on the phone actually told me I would be fine, that nothing would happen when I complained about the miles required to change it. Then my husband told the flight crew I wasnt feeling well and was going to to stay. No repercussions.... still Diamond. I still think it’s a risk though, but probably possible to pull off once.

If you’re caught, the airline can remove your status and points. Why would you voluntarily call and tell them what you did?

If you call and say “we were going to fly the it itineraries we booked but our plans unexpectedly changed and we need to cancel”, you’ll pay whatever penalties or fees you owe and life will move on.

If you do nothing, you might get away with it or you might get your accounts closed.

My friend just got out of a relationship and hooked up with his ex's best friend a week later. They're now dating and seeing each other everyday.
I couldn't help but feel like this wasn't an appropriate thing to do for both parties. He also revealed that he cheated on his past exes.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?
