What’s fraudulent about traveling without intending to travel?

Claiming delay compensation if you don’t have intent to travel is the fraud part.

Easiest example is if you have a season ticket, but you have the day off. You weren’t going to take the train to work that day, so no intent to travel. If you claim DR, then that’s fraud for the compensation.

But you end up hundreds of miles away from home, who could possibly argue that you moved halfway across the country without intent?
