As part of our Europe trip in Oct/Nov we want to fly from Milan (either MXP or LIN, we don’t care) to Munich but Lufthansa wants more than $700 per pax (there are three of us) for a one-way trip in Y. If I make it a return trip it’s around $100 per pax but I have been told that if we don’t take the return leg (which we wouldn’t as we are leaving Europe via FRA) then they charge the difference between the return and the one-way fare to your credit card.
The alternatives seem to be Air Berlin or German Wings at just over $100 for a one-way fare, but the departure times aren’t great - both around 9am - and they go via another German city (eg Cologne) making it a 7+ hour affair instead of a nice, one-hour direct flight on LH. I’ve thought about taking the train but it’s also a 7+ hour affair.
Does anyone know of a more cost-effective solution than paying $2K+ for three people to sit in Y for an hour...?
