American Airlines Takes Legal Action Against Skiplagged's Money-Saving Trick
TL;DR
American Airlines is suing travel company Skiplagged Inc., accusing it of deception and threatening to cancel all tickets sold by the website.

American Airlines recently banned a teenager for three years after he attempted to use this tactic.
