I believe that in my hypothetical scenario above, it would have been three itineraries. Sure they all would have been booked through Expedia.ca, but they would have been three round trips and I would be purposely missing the return legs of each. Just because I didn't get on on the return leg to Syracuse, I don't think they'd cancel my ticket to Stuttgart, especially since it would likely be a different airline.
I would only do that if 1- is is cheaper than a series of one way trips and 2- I don't have time or want to fly all over in order to do the round trips their way. Booking yourself online doesn't give you the option to go from point A to point B to point C and back to point A. Perhaps I should have used a travel agent. Would they have helped?
