Use Flighthub. Neither Expedia (changes all segments to same date) or Orbitz (error on payment) work. Flights must be within a couple weeks of each other. But Flighthub charges $75 to cancel within 24 hours, so need to be sure before paying. Also, Westjet says it will now cancel flights for 30 days from March 23rd.
$40 more from Calgary:

Can I ask, what's your plan for the return flights every couple of weeks?

I remember seeing this from YVR and trying it myself, got it down to 2 trips I think. But even then I wasn't sure what the hell I'd do with it. London is crazy expensive, one way INTL flights are crazy expensive and even booking 1 way awards from LON-YVR would be kinda stupid just based on the fact that I'd probably have to be in Y and make at LEAST one connection.

1. Like you said, it's ridiculously hard to use unless you find insanely cheap return flights which don't exactly exist at the moment.
2. TAP is regularly running fares of $109 from SFO to Europe one way, which would fit my schedule much better and use my *G benefits.
I think I was mostly intrigued you could have multiple identical flights on the same ticket; I didn't think that was allowed so it was a learning experience for future tricks

In this case, I feel I probably should have thought this through more. I ended up cancelling for a $75 penalty for a couple reasons:
1. Like you said, it's ridiculously hard to use unless you find insanely cheap return flights which don't exactly exist at the moment.
2. TAP is regularly running fares of $109 from SFO to Europe one way, which would fit my schedule much better and use my *G benefits.

I wasn't sure how this was possible on one ticket either, but hey, I'm always down to explore a good deal. I tried, couldn't make anything work for me, hopefully some can avail themselves of this.

Exactly how it reads and can be used in reverse. Dates span from second week of September through end of February. Black dates are around Thanksgiving and a bit before Christmas and through New Years.

AA has some decent fares to the caribbean in October/November.
For example, MSP-SXM on AA from $256 (Basic Economy). I booked it in main cabin for $324. Works out to be 5.6cpm.
