Hi,
I'm planning a trip to Japan/Korea.
Why does: Vancouver to Seoul Seoul to Fukuoka Tokyo to Vancouver
Cost more than: Vancouver to Seoul Seoul to Tokyo Tokyo to Vancouver?
For the 1st option, the mileage is less, but was wondering why? The 1st option would make travel plans easier for us.
Thanks!

I suspect that it is due to the fact that the Seoul-Tokyo route is much more popular than the Seoul-Fukuoka route. Consequently, there is a higher competition, which leads to lower fares.
Are you booking through a travel agent? Airline?

most airlines don't advertise them as it a headache for them, as far as keeping routes as full as possible, but they have them. I did open-jaws a few times, once going from Canada to China then from China to Germany and back to Canada (within a week).
