Doubt it - usually you can't get the super discount fares that way. But I'll check. And I'm still coming out under $300 regardless, so it's not like it's a dealbreaker or anything.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
You're welcome, brenda.
Want me to give it a shot? I've got finding cheap flights down to a science. Profile addy is good.

Nah, it's cool.
Because of my scheduling woes (I'm trying to make a wedding in downtown Chicago at 1 p.m. on Saturday), I have to have a direct flight on the return, so there's not a whole lot of options. Two airlines have direct flights that get in early enough for me, so it'll be one of those two, it's just a matter of finding the best way to buy the ticket.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Y'know what's weird? My flight to NO for the F2F. Travelocity offered me a non-stop via American on the way down, but a one-stop flight on the way back via Delta. I took it because the times were good and it was only a little more expensive than taking non-non-stop flights both ways.
But what's up with giving me different airlines each way at cheap prices? I don't think it's one of those dealies where it's an American flight piggybacking on a Delta airplane either.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Maybe they misread the word "thereminist" in your FBI passenger profile data, and just booked you on whatever flights made it easiest to arrest you.

I've booked that through Travelocity before. Prepare to be flagged for additional security check EVERY SINGLE LEG. You see, as far as the airlines know, you've booked a one-way. Even the security guards were griping about having to frisk my 8-year-old.

Our wings are not tired
Amazingly when I went back east in December I was flying on all one way tickets and I didn't get any extra attention going through security. I was expecting it, and then it didn't happen.

If they've wised up, that would be great. (Surely by now the terrorists have the brains to book round-trips?)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I got flagged going one-way in December.

That just happened to my mother, my nephew, and me when we went to Florida recently. Well, so there were only two legs, but, yeah, we got flagged both times. I mean, whatever, it was fine, but just... both ways. Ugh. And my mother is a nervous flyer anyway (yay for Xanax!), so... not fun.
And we booked through Travelocity, too. Is my point.
