This is probably stupid but on most award charts, is the number of miles required for a return trip, or do I have to multiply that number by two to get the return price?

In most cases it's a return trip, the ones for one way travel will be clearly identified as a one way award or whatever.
Upgrades though are usually listed as one way, not round trip.

Varies from airline to airline, depending mostly on airline policy for one-way awards. Airlines that offer one-way awards, such as AA, usually list the one-way mileage. You need to get two for a round trip. Those that don't usually list the miles for a round trip. A few may list both, if they offer one-way awards for less than the round-trip requirement, but more than half of it.

US Airways and American.
aa.com gives AA and All-Airline (partner) award requirements for one-way travel.
OneWorld Award mileage requirements are based on total trip mileage. How this breaks down in terms of "one-way" or "round trip" concepts is irrelevant.
Hopefully someone familiar with US can fill in that part for you.

Round trip. (Or, at least I hope so: domestic coach tickets cost 25,000-60,000.)Originally Posted by Efrem

Surely the experts around here guessed that the confusion was due to having tried to compare AA's chart to somebody else's. (Yes, I know, they're not the only ones.)

AA's chart says
ONE-WAY AWARDS ON AMERICAN AIRLINES, AMERICAN EAGLE AND AMERICANCONNECTION
AWARDS MAY BE USED ONE WAY OR COMBINED FOR ROUND-TRIP OR MULTI-CITY TRAVEL
across the top of it (no I'm not shouting, it's in upper case)
US Air says Roundtrip destinations on the top of their chart

I'm not sure what you're asking here, but basically you can tell whether the chart is one-way or return (also known as round-trip) by looking at the top of the chart.
