Then along came Skiplagged, and your average traveler suddenly knew about the "hidden-city". Is it illegal/prohibited for Travelers or potential Customers to know of such important Info that can save them money?
With little more than a mattress on the floor, Aktarer Zaman's tiny New York apartment serves as the hub of Skiplagged's operations. While airfares seem to continue its upward rates, Zaman, who is a computer whiz found a way to save hundreds of dollars on airline tickets. With a few clicks of the mouse, Skiplagged can help find what's called "hidden city" airfares.

It only works with one-way tickets and no checked bags. And while it's not illegal to fly this way, most airlines prohibit it.
"Think about it; they could have flown you at a higher rate into that middle city and then booked somebody for that next leg too, so it's a revenue loss for them. If they catch you on it, they say that they'll freeze your frequent flier miles. They might not let you book tickets in the future; they might not let you take a return flight. It's really pretty threatening." Full Article

The Travel Yogi:
Living into our motto of “Where Will Yoga Take You…” means we spend a lot of our time in the air and on the road scouting out our locations: eating their food, sleeping in their casitas and practicing in their yoga rooms (we know, it’s a rough life). All of this is to hard-flown effort is to create amazing yoga retreat and adventure experiences and for the benefit of our yogi travelers (you!).
We love: phone calls and emails and talking about our locations, so we encourage our yogi travelers contact us with any questions. Carefully scouting each location is as much about collecting some vitamin D as it about being able to pass along the ins and outs and make sure it’s the right yoga retreat/adventure fit for you.
We have been lucky to work with amazing teachers who are devoted to bringing our yogis an amazing yoga adventure and leave them with open hearts and minds.
All of us at The Travel Yogi believe wholeheartedly that yoga and travel are transformational. We love what we do, who we work with and having our feet on the ground and our heads in the clouds. And we’re wondering… where will yoga take you?
