00:00It can feel like a complex algorithm trying to book the best flights for a
00:04trip. Should I book two one-ways or one round trip? Online travel tools will
00:09compare many combinations with different airlines. It can be worth it to check
00:13airlines that don't appear in search results, such as Southwest. NerdWallet
00:17compared fares across multiple international routes and found that
00:20typically buying two one-way tickets cost 20% more than a single round trip.
00:25If you're using points, sometimes it can make sense to book two one-ways instead
00:30of one round trip. Canceling one leg of a trip could be more complicated with a
00:35round trip. You will probably want to call the airline rather than do it online to
00:39make sure the entire itinerary is not cancelled. An open-jaw flight is a flight
00:44that lands in one city and then departs from another. Some airlines can price
00:48this competitively as a round trip. So if I'm flying into Aunt Carol's but think I
00:53might need some personal space after 48 hours, I can get cousin Leon to pick me
00:59up and then depart out of another airport closer to his place. Got it.
