UK/US fares
while deciding whether to visit my son in the UK or fly him here to NY state, I go to the United Airlines booking engine and discover that, using "my dates are flexible" and choosing the month of September, the cost of EWR-LHR-EWR round-trips are in the order of $200 - $250 more expensive than the LHR-EWR-LHR round trip. Can anyone explain why US originating roundtrips are consistently more expensive than the same flights originating in the UK?
