Jet2 Charging 2 different costs for the same flight, is this allowed?

Options
Hi all,

trying to purchase flights to Alicante from LBA in August and if select return the outbound is roughly £55 each for 6 of us.

However, the return leg is circa £190 but only £90 with Ryanair. So, I was trying to book Jet2 outbound and coming back on Ryanair.

If I select single journey from to Alicante from LBA in August with Jet2 the cost jumps from £55 to £100. With 6 of us that's £260 additional for the same goods/services, I thought this wasn't allowed?

Thanks in advance.

    It is very common for one-way flights to be more expensive than a return flight (with the exception of low cost carriers that sell 2 x one-ways as a return)
    Have a look at BA for example...one way flight to New York from Heathrow 23rd March is £1,781
    add a return flight to come back on 30th and the whole ticket price is £452...same flight out is £1,400 cheaper if part of a return ticket

    Yes, it's allowed.

    Be careful booking separately. If for example the Jet2 outbound flight was cancelled, you would still be on the hook for the separately purchased inbound Ryanair flight.

    One way flights usually add fees on. So it might look cheaper but then when you don't select another leg, they add fees.
