Will booking two single tickets onward and return instead of one return pose problems with immigration? Scehngen and UK
I need to book tickets Chennai Paris London Chennai, but am finding that the multi city return ticket way more expensive than two single legs onward Chennai Paris and return London Chennai. However, I was told at the airline office that not booking a round trip ticket might pose problems with immigration. We have a UK tourist visa and are applying for a Schengen tourist visa to France. Is that likely? I will have my return ticket with me - only it would be issued as originating from London rather than Chennai. Total travel time is about 40 days.

What happens if I buy a round trip ticket and only use one way?
Can I buy a roundtrip ticket for a one-way trip? Technically, you can buy a roundtrip ticket and only use it to go one-way, but airlines frown upon this. And, you can only skip the return flight. If you miss a segment of your trip, the airline may cancel the rest of your ticket without giving you a refund.Can I book return ticket separately?
