As I was scrolling through the news today, a certain term caught my attention – “skiplagging”. For those unfamiliar with the term, it’s a practice some travellers use to get cheaper flights by booking a flight with a layover in their actual destination, then skipping the second leg of the trip. This often arises due to the perplexing pricing model of airlines where strangely, direct flights can sometimes be more expensive than flights with one or more stops.
