If you’re going to miss your flight, call the airline. Immediately. And be nice – Los Angeles Times
I got further into the discussion about hidden city ticketing for this one, including what happens if you miss a flight in your itinerary.

  I don’t have any connection to the LA Times and had no difficulty accessing the story. I can’t imagine that it would be practical for Brett to be able to predict that you’d have an issue.

  I had to problem, I just clicked the link and went right into the LA Times story and read it.
  I know sometimes I have problems seeing things on websites with other people don’t. That must have be the case when you tried.

  Many websites limit the number of articles you can read free before they intervene and require a subscription. Once you hit that limit, you are blocked. The solution is simple: Go to your browser”s history and delete everything (except passwords, if you’re foolish enough to save them in the browser). This will delete all the cookies and the website restriction count starts at zero. Whenever you are blocked, delete and reload the site.
