The terms that apply to your ticket are the ones in force at the time you bought it, not the ones in force now.
That is
exactly what I would like to do, but the JL agent was adamant that no changes can be made before NRT without triggering a re-price. Her argument was that KL/xSIN/NRT is to be treated as my first flight (due to the transit in SIN) and I wanted to check with the folks at FT if this is indeed correct.
