Nonsensicle

So CF and I want to fly from city A to city B to visit his family in June. The lowest price I have found has been ~$1300 per ticket. I am keeping my eyes out for any change in price.

The airline the I have flown with the most just sent me an email, so I figured I would check it out.

The airline had no flights from A to B, so I widened my search to within 100 miles of A.

Up comes flights from C, D, or E. I start clicking to see how the stopovers are.

The cheapest is from city E, the longest drive from our point of origin, to city B. Only our one stopover is CITY A?

How does this make sense?

Can you buy that ticket and skip the first leg of the trip?

Who in the what now? That makes no sense at all.

Maybe by using an Einstein-Rosen bridge they are able to bypass all the other spots and save you money....

Aim, I suppose you could - can you do that or do the airlines freak out about it?

Spark, exactly.

Ron, hmmmm...If there is one that would bypass the whole flight altogether, that would be ideal.
