To fly from NY to Paris, and back, with a connection in Boston would cost $594.28
To fly from Boston to Paris, and back, would cost $756

You end up flying on the exact same flight but skip NY-Boston leg of it. In what alternative dimension does that make any sense?

One plane to fly for NY to Boston leg, then transfer to another plane (Boeing 747) for Boston-Paris portion.
