Bookings a return 4 months later...
Looks like both one-ways have availability for T fares JFK-Europe. When you try to book outbound in January and return in May, the fare prices as H fare with a 300% premium! Am I doing something wrong or is there a fare rule I didnt know about?

To be more specific, many fares have a min/max stay requirement. MANY fares are limited by a 30 day (month) long stay, after which point you will see the fare spike astronomically.
As for 2 oneways, have you ever actually tried booking one-ways on DL to Europe? Go try it and report back,its a bad idea.

Likely a 90 day max stay on this fare though...many fares have 30/90 day max stays.

Yes, most airlines are like this in the US. I was surprised given the posters history that he was unaware of such!
