Sometimes that will give you a lower fare...have to be a bit more flexible with your time though.
I don't really have a method to my madness. Many people on this site get crazy with learning fare codes and using ITA. It's almost like learning a new language lol
But you have to build the trip with the Multiple Destinations page right? And I don't see that search for a lower fare on that page. Only if you're doing a regular round trip or one way from the initial page. Or is the technique more just to try regular round trips and see what you can come up with? Thanks
