So someone is going to pay for several flights, check in online and then not turn up (no show). Doesn't sound profitable to me.
It gives the business traveller flexibility on LCCs that one used to have from a full Y or C ticket. On high frequency routes of course. I knew a guy who did exactly this on squeezy LGW-AMS. He'd book and pay for two or three flights and on the day would take the flight that suited his needs. It was cheaper than a fully flexible ticket on the network airlines. This was before squeezy's flexible prices.
