Why do people keep booking through third party sites for flights?
I was at a travel meetup in Denver last night and someone mentioned they saved $12 on a flight to Portland by using a sketchy reseller, but then got stuck with no refund when the flight got canceled. I've seen this happen like 5 times this year alone, people chasing tiny savings and ending up paying way more in hidden fees or lost tickets. Has anyone else noticed this trend and do you actually trust those sites over booking direct with the airline?

Buddy booked through Expedia, got a free checked bag that didn't exist.

Bought a "free" checked bag through a travel site once too. Turned out the airline didn't even know what a checked bag was. Guess I'm not the only one paying for imaginary extras.
