Be careful when you buy round trips and intend to only use the leg (one way). I have read somewhere in a forum (that I cannot find now :() about airlines charging penalties/ the price of a one way ticket if you do not use the second segment of your flight (the return). Just in case, don't let them know your intention is not to use it, don't call for a refund of the unused leg, and generally read the fine prints to see if they charge you for not using the second leg. Better yet, if you buy your ticket from an agency, have them check this. An airline representative would not be allowed to tell you "sure, you can buy a round trip and use only one leg".

If you intend to return in the states with your hubby, buy an open return flight. A bit more expensive, but not as much as 2 round trip tickets.

From work situations I can tell you for the non-refundable tickets you are allowed to use the un-used portion of your trip sometime in the future with the penalty/change fee (around $150) and possible difference in price - so it could be for less than $150. My people do this all the time.
