How to make a round-trip at a smart price?
Serving a classic round-trip flight isn't always the most economical solution.
Today, a simple technique allows you to pay less for your tickets:
👉 combine two one-way flights instead of one classic round trip.
This still little-known method can save you up to several tens or even hundreds of euros.
Why isn't the classic round trip always the cheapest?
You might think that a round-trip ticket is necessarily optimized, but that's not always the case.
👉 Airlines:
- adjust their prices according to demand
- optimize their margins on popular routes
- don't always offer the best combinations .
Result:
➡️ one return trip can be more expensive than two one-way trips
The principle: combine 2 one-way tickets
✈️ Concrete example
Instead of réserver:
👉 Paris → Barcelona → Paris (A/R classic)
You can réserver:
👉 Paris → Barcelona (company A)
👉 Barcelona → Paris (company B)
Why ça works?
- Some airlines are less expensive .
- D’autres sont plus compétitives au retour
- Low-cost carriers often offer only optimized one-way flights
👉 By combining intelligently, you benefit from the best price on each segment
The advantages of this method
✅ 1. Significant savings
You choose the cheapest flight each way
✅ 2. More flexibility
- different schedules .
- different companies .
- wider choice
✅ 3. Low-cost access
Low-cost airlines are often:
- imbattables à l’aller
- but not necessarily on the return trip .
👉 You can only use them when it's interesting
