Interesting. I wonder if we could stretch the meaning of 'to dispose of' to a very convenient for us 'to use at a later date'. @:-)
Note: before someone says "can't be done", let me say that yes, I agree, I know the OWE is different and this most probably wont fly, but with some (non-OWE) tickets it -can- be done. I have purchased several tickets MAD-EZE-SYD r/t in the past, flown MAD-EZE-MAD and much later flown EZE-SYD-EZE, all with the airline's ok, by the way.
