Me and a friend are flying from England to Brazil. She's from Brazil and is returning to her home country, i'm from England and I will be flying with her but only for a 4 week vacation. So I will use both parts of the return ticket, whilst she would only use the first part.
We are looking at American Airlines or Lufthansa. Both offer round-trip tickets at a cheaper price than single. But I don't want my friend to end up with a penalty fine for not completing her journey as she will be staying in Brazil.
Thanks for your fast replies by the way guys

See if there is award availability on AA, if so, AA is offering a good deal to purchase miles right now. If you can find inventory, see if you can hold it and then purchase miles.
