Thanks for responding. OK, I will try to be clearer.

I currently need a total of 2 one-ways, SCL-IPC.

My husband already has a pre-Nov.16th Y BA award ticket IPC-LIM-JFK. Is there any way I could call and pay a change fee to have him start from SCL instead of IPC--ideally SCL-IPC-LIM-JFK (I think this would have been allowed when I booked his ticket). That way I would only need to redeem Avios points for 1 SCL-IPC award for me.

Questions I have trying to do this:
Would it be allowed and how much would it cost?
His original flight is in Y but I can only find the SCL-IPC leg in J. What kind of increase in miles would this cost and would it be using the BA redemption values or the Avios redemption values?

Thanks for any suggestions.
