Booking return flights with different airlines

[littlereddevil]

I often book one ways from/to Glasgow with Thomas Cook and Aegean. Depends who has good prices and good flight times at the time I book. Both of them allow one-way no problem.

It's not just different airlines, I do different airports too.

Last year I got really cheap flights going out from Glasgow, and another really cheap flight coming back to Manchester. The only problem with such arrangements is you can't use your own car to get to the airport as you won't be returning there but in this particular case I spent £28 (train x4 to Glasgow), £68 hotel at Glasgow aiport (it was a 5am check in), £84 (rental car collecting at Manchester Airport, dropping back at my local branch), £38 diesel.

£28 +  £68 + £84 + £38 = £218

Saving by choosing 2 different airports £122, x 4 = £488

£488 - £218 = £270

I'm not tight, I made sure the £270 was fully spent on nice stuff for the family during our holiday

sometimes the flights are cheaper when booked seperatly, also you can vary luggage allowance as many of us dont need 20kg when leaving Turkey but need it when coming from uk

I do it all the time as I come over for months at a time,easy to do once you have a full list of flight companies and like Scunner Ill travel to make a large saving.
