Thanks, I was able to do it within the window. I had to go thru the call center to make the reso, so I'll see if get that $25 back too (unlikely!)
On a related matter, the award rules are a bit contradictory for changes.
I have booked Italy - LAX and I will want to add LAX-SFO once the savers are released for that leg.
The rules say:
- there is no charge to add,change or remove a segment more than 21 days prior to travel,
- but they also quote a $75 fee to change the origin or destination.
I guess we'll find out - $75 not such a big deal!
