Lots of stuff was different, it's one of the reasons most fares are done as 2 one ways, not a round trip these days. The cancellations were the response to hidden city ticketing where a connecting flight segment of a a longer trip cost more than the longer combined flight because of competition between certain markets that didn't exist to the intermediate point. NYC to St Louis could cost more than NYC to LA (with a connection in STL) Since most discount fares back then were round trip (and often requiring a Saturday overnight) if you got caught just flying to STL and not continuing, they could cancel the rest of your trip forcing you to buy a very expensive one way to get home. |
