Can you fly out with one airline and back with another?

Yes, sure you can. It doesn't matter what airlines you use. ... But if you have booked your travel ticket and return ticket from different airlines or any agency then you can use different airlines.

Is flight number and ticket number same?

They are two different things. A booking reference is a record of your booking, usually with the airline or agent who issues the ticket. The flight number is the specific reference of the flight you are travelling on, but NOT the day; the same flight number is used on a route each day that this flight takes place.

Can I only use my return flight?

Passengers who missed their outbound flight could be stranded at the airport on their return home due to a tiny clause buried in many airline terms and conditions. The little-known 'no-show' rule means your return ticket can be void and sold on without warning if you do not board your outbound flight.

Can you link two separate flights?

A: It depends, but the general rule is NO. Some airlines will through check baggage onto separately ticketed flights, but some won't (even if both tickets are with the same airline). ... You will need to know in advance of booking your flights whether the airline will protect you.

Is it cheaper to fly one-way or roundtrip?

On some airlines, mostly large ones, roundtrip tickets are a better overall deal. A recent example on a big U.S. airline for travel from Los Angeles to Denver found roundtrips for $277 and one-way fares for $133. In this case, the one-way fare costs more than half of the roundtrip total.

Can I book two one-way tickets instead of a round trip?

It's a good time to book a one-way

However, some airlines may only offer a one-time change per reservation. By booking two one-way tickets that are on two different reservations — instead of a single round-trip, — you may get more flexibility when it comes to taking advantage of change policies.

How do I check my flight number?

You can find your airline number on the airline's website or in the phone book. If the number is not in the phone book, call your airport and a customer service representative can direct you to the appropriate ticket desk.

How do I find my flight ticket number?

On a paper ticket, the airline code and ticket number is located at the bottom center of the ticket.

Where do I find my flight number?

Flight number: how it is put together and what it means

The number of the flight indicates which route it is and which airline it refers to. The number can usually be found right next to the route, which is in one of the first lines of the ticket.

Is my return flight still valid if I missed my departure?

If you missed a flight because you were late to the airport, you don't have any real rights. Most airlines will classify you as a "no-show" and keep your money. Note that your return flight will also be canceled automatically.

What happens if you book a return flight but don't return?

In theory yes you could be charged the fare difference (not a fine) as you purchased a one way ticket in essence. But in practice it is very very rare that an airline will do that. Many people miss a flight so that is not unusual. If one does this with the same airline often, then it could be a potential issue.

What happens if you dont use return flight?

One of today's most hardened airline rules says that if you miss or cancel any portion of a plane ticket, the airline can cancel all flights remaining on that ticket's itinerary. When you miss that first flight, whether or not you cancel or no-show, the entire ticket becomes void.
