American Airlines is selling a $1,000 bus ride from Philadelphia to Wilmington, Delaware.
American Airlines lists $1,000 bus rides between Wilmington and Philadelphia as standalone tickets.
KEY POINTS
- These bus rides are operated by Landline and intended only as part of longer connecting itineraries.
- A technical limitation prevents American Airlines from removing standalone Landline tickets from search results.
- The high price is set intentionally to discourage customers from booking the bus ride alone.
- Confusion arises because these bus rides appear as flights in third-party and airline search results.
