I need someone to answer where one-way tickets are twice as expensive as round trip..why!?

Ive heard the whole "it ensures a seat back" thing, but the thing is, its not like everyone goes and comes back the same times, I mean, im sure there is someone trying to go from one destination and would take your seat anyway.


Ok, but my real question is...I found a sweet flight special for a one way ticket from hongkong. but now I have to get to Hong kong cheap, ( i live in japan)

now i can find round trip tickets for under $200, but if i look for any one-way, the cheapest is $600 , and just shoots up from there? what the hell is going on?


can i just get this round-trip ticket and "miss" the flight home? has anyone ever done thing? why ever buy a one-way ticket!?

sure, you can flake on the return. They're not going to send the cops after you.

And, of course, this is one of the reasons for overbooking of flights.
