I can only assume that the software that looks up the flight code failed to find a destination, or the object is malformed - so in the absence of any destination is just reads “Mystery Flight”.
no actually I think there are mystery flights that dont tell u where ure going so its a surprise but tell u what places it could be so that u know what documentation u might need and stuff, I saw a warning about that on the page of the last airline I used saying something like “if u take a mystery flight make sure u have all the documentation ready for any of the possible destinations”
Fuck me, that’s a brave call, seeing as some destinations are off limits depending on what passport you have!
I didn’t think there’d be enough people to fill an Aerial Lingus “mystery” flight without filling the rest of the seats with regular passengers, but then I suppose the people who had booked on to the flight as a regular segment would ruin the surprise within seconds.
A couple times a buddy and I would take what we called “mystery vacations” where you walk into the airport and ask if they need any seats filled ASAP because you can haggle them down to crazy prices.
You just don’t know where you’re going ahead of time and you’ll have to figure out your return flight.
But I flew from Atlanta International to Denver International for $45 once.

Huh, wonder if this is still possible/possible in Canada. Imagine not but would be a fun adventure.
From talking to other people online, it seems to still be possible in the states.
Just be ready for rejection, and for the people at the ticket counters to be really confused about what you’re trying to do haha.
Lol, will dig a little bit then. Used to love doing something similar to this when Greyhound still rolled through here.
Worst anyone can say is no :)
