As this Afar article explains, two one-way tickets can sometimes unlock cheaper fares and help travelers maximize points and miles—if you know when to use the strategy and how to avoid the risks. Because airlines often set prices for each leg of a trip individually, two one-way tickets can sometimes cost less than a round-trip fare. Booking two one-ways can also widen the variety of flight times (meaning more options for both departures and returns) and give you better opportunities to maximize points and miles. Still, the strategy isn’t for everyone. Two one-way tickets may come with fewer loyalty perks, and they come with more risk, as you may have to cancel or reschedule your return flight if your outbound flight is canceled. The article goes on to elucidate what to know when contemplating two one-way tickets versus a round-trip booking.
