can I do this?

Ok, I have not flown since 09/11. It has nothing to do with 09/11, just haven't had the opportunity. So, in trying to find a flight for leadership I can NOT afford a direct flight to CVG. So I started checking out other flights to the airports suggested by HO and checking times with the shuttle service.

Well, one of the flights i found I would need to change in CVG!!!! SO, I was thinking I'll take this flight, not do the connection. BUT will it be a problem on the return if I just board in CVG and not in Lexington? I wasn't sure with all the new security measures. Thanks for you help!

Yes- you will have a problem, especially if you check bags. And the airlines check passenger lists. If you don't board for the first leg of the flight, they may give your seat away to someone flying standby, so you wouldn't have a spot to board to on the second leg.

see, I knew that I should've just asked you to begin with!! LOL Thanks for the info, I didn't even think about the checked baggage part. Oh, well, the flight times are still good as is the price!!

Ann is right, you will have even further issues flying home or in the future if you don't take the whole flight.
