Hidden City Ticketing - asking airline to change portion
score:14
It depends on the rate you have booked. If this rate allows a modification, then yes you'll be able to modify your bookings. The point is that you'll probably have to pay the difference as the ticket price should be higher based on what you have seen.
There is a good reason why the flights starting from Amsterdam are cheaper. Lufthansa wants to attract more traffic from Amsterdam to fill their intercontinental flights. So they offer discounted flights. On the other side, they don't have problems to fill flights with passengers from Frankfurt as it is more direct for you so you pay a higher bill.
This might not sound fair or logic but it makes sense from a business point of view. Indirect flights are usually cheaper and then, airline companies also offer higher discounts there to beat their competitors. If a passenger in Amsterdam has two options : one direct to Vancouver and one via Frankfurt, he will always pick the direct one if it is roughly the same price as the indirect one (unless he has some loyalty program benefits). So the indirect one has to be much cheaper...
So you got it for the price (you probably knew all this already). Now, will it be allowed for you to take the plane only in Frankfurt? I don't think so... Companies have strict policies around this to avoid people cheating the booking system to get lower rates. If you haven't checked in in AMS, there is 90% probability that you won't be able to check in in FRA directly without passing through AMS. For the return flight, it is a bit different. Nothing prevents you from getting out of the airport in Frankfurt.
