I do believe CO will allow LGA & JFK to be switched w/o any problems, chance of remaining up front probably Nil, but then again chance of having to overnight it @ IAH also Nil

Hi craz,

I just called the elite desk and they got a ruling that our Fare Class is valid for any of the city pairs. They said I can do a SBY to either LGA or EWR at the 24 hr point before my flight to a flight within 12 hrs of the original departure. Since EWR has the most, I guess I'll do that when the time comes. I had assumed that the fare rules didn't allow the change. Good lesson, call before assuming.

Thanks again.
