Make up your mind please.


However, to answer your original question, the two fares are combined on a half-round-trip-basis as the first fare most likely allows stopovers and also allows a routing thru CHQ while having the destination ATH.

Normally, if it prices on ITA Matrix, don't worry about the fare rules. It's when routes doesn't price you need to worry about the rules.
