if I cancel the inbound after taking the outbound does the ticket have flight credit value? Assume not 50% could be less or more if any. Or would it have no value? If would have a flight credit could it be used on a domestic flight.
Really depends on the specific fare you purchased. If it was two one-ways combined, then the return will have value even if you voluntarily cancel the return.
If it was a round-trip fare, it will have no value if you voluntarily cancel other than moving to new dates on the return. You can probably swap return to/from cities as long as it transatlantic (so no you can't use it on domestic-only). If your return ends up being involuntarily cancelled, approximately 50% of the value can be refunded.
