All three fees will be $75 for general members, $50 for Silver Elite members, $25 for Gold Elite members and free for Platinum Elite members. And yes, OnePass travel reward changes outside of 21 days of travel will remain free of charge if there is no change to the origin or destination. These new fees will apply to rewards ticketed (or reissued) on or after Dec. 15.
So if these new fees apply to reward tickets reissued after Dec 15...
Does this mean that a reward booked now but changed, for example, on Dec 20 under the old fees/rules, this reward will then have the new fees applied to it for further changes/redeposit?
The notice on the CO website says the new fees are "for rewards redeemed on or after Dec. 15, 2009" which sounds like the reward has to be initially booked after Dec 15.
