Here's what, for example, AA's CoC says:
``American specifically prohibits the practices commonly known as [...]
Throwaway Ticketing: The usage of roundtrip excursion fare for
one-way travel''
Which part of *prohibits the usage of roundtrip excursion fare for
one-way travel* do you not understand?

>damage than failure to use a return leg?
They are not violating the contract. The contract has a whole section
devoted to overbooking, which describes in gory detail what their
rights and obligations are. By buying a ticket from them, you give
them the right to overbook AND also waive your right to not take the
return leg of a roundtrip excursion ticket. Why don't you read the
actual contract?
