When booking on the LOT Airlines website, a round-trip flight is broken down into a $367 departure and $367 return flight, but when booking a one way it is almost the same price as a round-trip flight. Does anyone know a way I can book a one-way at a reasonable price or if I book a round-trip, to be able to refund the return flight

Throwing away the return part of the ticket works for me, but then I would generally not contact LO about it. Sometimes what does work is book the return flight on a far out date and hope for a major schedule change; and then parlay that schedule change for a refund or something else more to my liking from the airlines.
