Bengals311,

Ok, more clarification: I'm not trying to get more money than what I pay for a ticket. I will have to show receipts and be reimbursed based on those anyway. All I'm trying to do is to maximize the vacation allowance based upon which I can claim my trips, i.e., the amount I will have available to spend. Not what I actually spend. Totaly different issues. And please, don't assume I'm trying to cheat anyone. I just need a quick answer on the definition of full fare, that is all.

So, again back to the point: if I get a quote on a full fare IATA itierary that shows a value which is less than double the one-way trip, in my mind it means that fare is discounted based on the fact that you are commiting to fly both ways. In my mind that fare cannot be called full fare anymore, since it has a built-in discount. Full fares should be undiscounted.
What if I fly one leg and want to get a refund for the other leg? Can I do that in the discounted ticket? If not, can that be called a full fare then??

Let me illustrate the questions. Let's say a one-way trip from A to B is U$ 2000 and the same US$ 2000 from B to A. Is it fare to say that if the round trip is, for instance, US$ 3000, whatever this fare is, it cannot be a full fare, since it includes a discount in it?
Should a Full Fare round trip (undiscounted, fully refundable) be US$ 4000??

Thanks
