What does open jaw mean?

An "open jaw" ticket is a round-trip ticket where you leave a different airport than you originally arrived.

Oh. Christ. I always thought it was because the price was so good that your mouth would be wide open in shock.

Heat added. I originally saw Aeroflot and thought of their old reputation as "the world's deadliest airline" but media and reviews from the last year or two are surprisingly good.

I am sure they are great but I can't get flight 593 out of my mind.

Maybe because who died didn't get chance to review them.

Yup they're a 4-star airline these days. Here are some more notes from the email I received:
This one is a recurring mispriced open-jaw flight (departs one airport and returns to another), where you have two options: a. depart Paris and return to London b. depart Rome and return to London
Notes: 1) While the fares are mispriced on this route, this deal has come up before and has always been honoured. 2) Aeroflot is 4-star rated airline flying Airbus planes and apart from one instance of a delayed bag, I've heard nothing but positive things from the many who grabbed this flight before (so worry-not!) 3) These have a short 2-3hr stop in Moscow each way, but you will not need a visa - you won't even need to leave the terminal

Some of those flights are crazy long. The return flight on the link above is 17.5 hours for a flight that would usually take around 12!

I think you're referring to 12 for a non-stop flight. Most flights with a stop to Asia are well above that. This one has a 2-3hr stop in Moscow each way. I flew to Seoul with Alitalia last year and it was a 19 hour journey each way for example.

very hot and humid went once in aug never again and was only there for a long weekend sidetrip from bkk to visit family

The humidity is off the chart and the temperatures are mental. We travelled around japan and found that everywhere we went was hot and humid. I knew what to expect as I had been there before but it still hit me. Still, don't let it put you off!

apparently not the best time to visit Tokyo, hot and humid; great price though

Spring and late summer are the best times to visit Japan IMO. The festivals, the colours, the weather etc. Tokyo in the hot and sweaty, you might as well go to London and ride the tube in the august heat, slightly less people per carrage too!

Looks like some may be gone already, though just had a look on momondo and kayak and there is still a lot of availability at £251-£265ish
