Hello,
One more idea, which - I am afraid - will not work but let me try anyway.
I found very cheap flights from Vienna to Brazil and back (700 USD compared to 1000 USD for Brazil-Vienna-Brazil). But I am in Brazil and not in Vienna.
Suppose I buy a return flight from Vienna to Brazil, departure e.g. on 5 June and return on e.g. 25 June. If I do not use the first part of it, will I be allowed to board the plane from Brazil to Vienna on 25 June, or will the airline be entitled to think that I dropped the whole flight?
This would be a bit similar to throwing away the return ticket. In this case, however, I would throw away the first part of the trip.
Thanks.
