One Way Air Tickets

dimanche 16 octobre 2016

On the cusp of booking a flight to Chile from JFK. LATAM do direct flights. I'm not coming back so this is a one way flight.
Pricing for a one way ticket is $1250 and oddly only connecting flights available.
Pricing for a return on the direct flight same date, $900.

What's the pricing logic? Why do they not want to offer a one way direct flight? Why is the more troublesome, longer, connecting one-way flight pricing $350 more than a direct return ticket?
By forcing me to buy a return ticket and not use the return leg my seat goes empty. The airline loses the opportunity of selling the seat (unless they are overbooking the flights, which I doubt there's enough demand to do so).

Does anyone actually book one-way flight tickets? Why bother to even offer them?

Never understood one way pricing logic.
