Round-trip ticket and one-way ticket on the same flight

Upvote:3

My boyfriend and I now have a set of tickets like the one you asked about, my A to B, together B to A, he A to B. We did this by being on the same ticket selling site at the same time and making the booking at the same time, so we were both sure the booking was going through before either one committed.

This is just a single flight but working the same way would work for flights where you have to make connections as well.

As your friend already has his flights, you will need to search for the same flights. It does not need to be one way tickets, unless you do not want to return home.

If you can not get a ticket selling site to do it for you, try going to a travel agency, one that specializes in business travel may work for this.

You will still need to check in together and may still end up in different parts of the plane, although a good travel agency should be able to get you in the same fare class, so likely in the same part of the plane.

Of course, tickets not bought together give less guaranty of traveling together, but two (or more) adults traveling together will be separated if the airlines think it is needed. If one of you is asked to use a different flight, for whatever reason, volunteer to both change, if you can afford the delay in arrival.

As a side note: On checking in online, within a few minutes from each other, we found we were given seats next to each other, which was a nice surprise which we were not expecting.
We were expecting to change at least one of the check-in seats, ask at the airport or even fly in different parts of the plane.
