Two "free" changes for platinum. No free changes for GE/SE. A direct result of the "best-in-class" cr@p DL is feeding us.

If you want to book 330 days in advance (double check - online it is often a few days more than that), just book one-way for the same number of miles. Then add a return date when it becomes available and pay the change fee.
