Can I change the date of my return after I have flown the outbound leg?

Can I cancel the inbound once outbound has been flown?

Always, book both ways as one ways.

Yes, but all you will get back is possibly some taxes, no Avios refund.

"Always" is too absolute. It depends on the trip. There are pros and cons to each approach.

No use of a 2-4-1. For example.

Two more:-
  1. You could pay more in TFC than if you booked one round-trip.
  2. If you have to cancel or change the entire trip, you could have to pay 2 x £35 rather than 1 x £35.
