Skiplagging, also known as “hidden city ticketing,” is a practice where passengers intentionally book a flight with a layover at their intended destination, instead of booking a direct flight to that destination. It may result in lower fares compared to traditional booking methods.
While skiplagging can offer cost savings and flexibility, we want to ensure that you are fully aware of its potential implications and limitations. It is essential to consider the following before proceeding with a skiplagged flight:
1. Limited Flight Options: Skiplagging may not be suitable for all routes and destinations. Not all flights will have layovers at your intended destination, limiting the availability of skiplagged options.
2. One-Way Only: Skiplagging is typically applicable to one-way flights only. Attempting to skiplag on round-trip flights may result in the cancellation of your return journey by the airline.
3. Checked Baggage: If you have checked baggage, it will likely be tagged to your final destination. If you choose to disembark at the layover point, your checked baggage may continue to the final destination without you. This can be inconvenient and may require additional arrangements on your part.
4. Booking Multiple Tickets: Skiplagging often requires booking multiple tickets separately, which can introduce complexities in managing your itinerary and may not provide the same level of protection and assistance as a single-ticket booking.
5. Airline Policies: Airlines strictly prohibit skiplagging, and it may violate their terms of service. Although it is not illegal, airlines may take actions such as canceling your return ticket or frequent flyer miles, so you should be aware of potential risks.
6. Inflexible Schedules: Skiplagging can limit your flexibility in changing travel plans or making adjustments to your itinerary. Rebooking or modifying skiplagged tickets may be more challenging or costly.
7. Travel Insurance: Regular travel insurance may not cover you adequately for skiplagged flights. Make sure to check with your insurance provider about the coverage and any exclusions related to skiplagging.
8. Potential Risks: Skiplagging involves certain risks, such as flight delays or cancellations that can disrupt your itinerary. The airline may reroute you or cancel your ticket if they detect a skiplagged booking.
9. Personal Responsibility: As a customer, you assume responsibility for understanding the risks and consequences associated with skiplagging. Our company will not be held liable for any issues that may arise due to skiplagging practices.
