My question is, can I book a round trip and later cancel and get full refund for my return ticket? Did anyone did similar stuff before. Please share your experience.
Is it worth a hassle for saving $160?
If you have two fare types combined stricter cancellation rule will apply. Also if you cancel after departure (so after you have used you ORD MAA flight) the refund after departure rule will apply. As far as I can see it states "not possible" (Economy Saver), so the fare is non-refundable after departure. As it is "stricter rule" you whole ticket will be non-refundable after departure.
So you would get nothing back in this case (despite some unused taxes).
