You could use a for-comprehension as follows instead: val fut1 = Future{...} val fut2 = Future{...} val fut3 = Future{...} val aggFut = for{ f1Result <- fut1 f2Result <- fut2 f3Result <- fut3 } yield (f1Result, f2Result, f3Result) In this example, futures 1, 2 and 3 are kicked off in parallel. Then, in the for comprehension, we wait until the results 1 and then 2 and then 3 are available. If eithe
