Maybe this should be filed under "No0b questions," but I'll try here any way.  ;)

I want to book a RT BOS-TLV-BOS, leaving August 2016 and returning June 2017. The return is too far out now to purchase. Can I purchase an "open" return ticket? What does such a ticket cost? Do I need to go through a live travel agent? Must both legs be booked on the same carrier?

Thanks.
I know many students get a Swissair open ticket, which means that you can switch the return ticket for free. I think it's like $1,100. Or try to find a cheap one way...

Swiss has a return and you can change the return for free (once), but up to 12 months.
Only Elal has an "open" ticket, but has to be changed within 12 months

So dispute the charge after they book the ticket.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

ahh, the good old Freddie Method

What you do is order two vente Americanos. One, you throw in the barrista's face while it is scalding, and the other you grab and run out the door with.

MotorSich operates IEV to UDJ on an AN_19 aircraft. Any of you know what that is? Google is not helping.

There always is that chance that prices can go down, however due to the fact that it's a busy season for this route you risk having all cheap seats on the flights selling out.

Define simple.

There are two main ways to cancel a flight with Expedia. The first is by logging into your Expedia account and selecting your itinerary. Then click Cancel Flight.

The other way is by calling Expedia customer support at 1-800-551-2534.
