My question is I was wondering if there was a way to book a round trip flight and just use award miles on going there an not coming back. If you book it as 2 one-ways it can be done but then you pay more for the one-way than a round trip flight. This is to be done on AA and the flight is from ORD to LHR.
Are you talking about paid tickets or awards?
One way awards are exactly 1/2 of a RT award so you are NOT paying more.
If you buy a RT ticket you have the option not to show up for the return trip but you would be losing the money on return ticket - I don't see how that would be saving anything.
I don't think I fully understand your question.
