Anyone missed a flight on purpose

Anyone missed a flight on purpose?
Planning to travel to Atlanta, GA from Columbus,OH on Oct 21st but found the airfare to be pricey (around $529), whereas flight from Columbus, OH to Jacksonville, FL on the same day with 1 stop at Atlanta, GA is $100. Want to check whether I can book a ticket from Columbus, OH to Jacksonville, FL & discontinue my journey after Atlanta, GA. One way trip with no check-in luggage

OH David ,only you can think of something as wacky as that.
2 :
$100 total? That doesn't sound right... To answer your question though, you would be able to book that flight if ATL was your final destination and just skip the Jacksonville leg of the flight.
3 :
You can, but your return voyage (back to Columbus whenever you return) will most likely be canceled.
4 :
If you check luggage, it will continue on without you - so you'll want to only have carry on. Other than that, it shouldn't be a problem at all. You might even want to inform that at the counter so they aren't holding the seat for you.

As long as it is a one trip with no checked luggage your fine. If it were round trip the system would cancel your return trip. If you had checked luggage they would consider it fare jumping and charge you the addition fee to pick up your luggage.

it may sound simple but it's not if you get off your flight at the connection point you could be in all kinds of trouble first of all it may just be a stop and the passenger wait on the aircraft in which case you could not deplane even if it is a connection and you don't get on the second half of the trip you could find homeland security all over you not worth it
