Just to humor AZ, I checked itineraries using ghost return dates and the cheapest is US$175. That might be competitive for those who actually want a return schedule (LH is actually showing $142 on the sample itineraries), but its a complete revenue loss for AZ while they keep their dignity and ignore us thousands of proletariats who might need to get from point A to point B and nothing more.
Agree 100% Culrain
not having o/w fares dosn't make sense - even more so because on some routes you can purchase o/w (all domestic and certian european, but not LHR)

Alitalia do go as low as 115€ rtn at the moment (SLIGHTLY cheaper) and for me leaving from LIN (AZ) instead of MXP (LH) is worth at LEAST 50 euros

Noticed they've changed the planes - more MD80's and less airbuses again
