My Question is, Is There a way to get Return Flights from bargain finder max or should I:

  1. Get One Way flights from Bargain Finder Max for Departure Date and book departure flights
  2. Get One Way Flights by calling Bargain Finder Max for return and book the return flight for the specified date.

Thank you for your help.
