My daughter is starting school in the US (we stay in Thailand) and my wife and I would like to accompany her back. There is a much better deal if we buy round trip tickets, but flying back would only be my wife and myself (contenting through China) . What will happen if my daughter doesn't use her ticket to return with us?

    This specific case seems to be about multiple people on the same booking, and some dumping a leg of the flight while others use it. – Carl Jan 19 '15 at 16:05

    I think the only difference is that they're all on the same booking, so addressing if her not taking it would affect the others would be worthwhile. – Mark Mayo♦ Jan 19 '15 at 21:15

  • A group ticket where only one of the members has been hospitalized or detained or killed and can't participate on the back leg should not be that unusual. – Alexander Jan 20 '15 at 7:35

You'll simply forfeit the return ticket for your daughter. It might be smart to try to book her ticket with a far-away return date if it doesn't cost extra--maybe she'll come to Thailand a year from now?

If you're wondering if the airline will prevent you from boarding without your daughter present: no, they shouldn't have any reason to do that.
