Typically, Egencia gives me the exact same fare that I see on DL webpage, but we are required to use them (because kickbacks, probably). I didn't verify for this particular trip, but I do for most, so that I can easily see seat availability before I book.
I haven't done the math on the distance flown, but the routing was the same on both directions and it was $509 one way and $628 the other - that's 26.4% one way and 32.5% the other, for the same 1929 miles.
