Round Trip ticket only cancel return ticket (Semi-Flexible)
Hi All,
I need a one way ticket (Business Class) from MAD to TPE, I've checked Turkish Airlines website, one way ticket will cost me around EUR 2,032. While I also checked, if I purchase a round trip ticket below intentionally, it's still cheaper than one way ticket (EUR 1818 vs 2032) if my return ticket is no show.
1. outbound flight (2025/10/5 TK1860+TK24) from MAD to TPE at Business Semi-Flexible J-J cost me EUR 1,322, Fare rule is200.00 EUR deduction if I cancel this leg
2. Inbound ticket (2025/11/24 TK25+TK1857) from TPE to MAD at Economy Semi-Flexible Q-Q cost me EUR 495, Fare rule is 100.00 EUR deduction if I cancel this leg
I have a few questions need some clarification here,
1. Since return inbound ticket is semi flexible refundable ticket, if I am willing to pay deduction fee, can I cancel my return inbound ticket only?
2. When I can cancel my return inbound ticket? right after my booking or I can only cancel it after taking my outbound flight?
3. I learnt from fare rule, cancel ticket will apply the most restricted fare rule. In this case, the most restricted fare rule is EUR 200 deduction. Can I assume if I purchase this round trip ticket but pay the penalty to cancel the return inbound ticket then the cost of this MAD to TPE will be EUR 1322+EUR 200=EUR 1522?
By the way, I also checked another round trip ticket with outbound cost EUR 1322 (Business Semi flexible)+EUR 383 (Economy Promo V-V, not refundable), total cost is EUR 1705. Shall I just No Show at return flight without dealing the cancelling process?
Thank you!
