I bought a ticket from MIA to EZE for $850 round trip off of EXPEDIA.COM .. at the time I thought it was a good deal because I have miles and was going to get a ticket from LAX to MIA for free with the miles.

It turns out that the time frame doesn't match (newbie mistake of course) so I have to cancel this ticket that I bought with expedia.

Right now I am in argentina and I plan on calling them tomorrow becuase my friends/family in california don't seem to be helping much.

My question is, after reading the following penalties for cancelation, will I only incure a $100 penalty for cancelation???

It talks about a deadline for a full refund. Where can I find out what that deadline is??

Expedia.com also states that I might have to pay a difference in ticket price if I cancel. The new ticket costs about $1300.

Can anyone help me out with some tips on their experience with canceling tickets bought via EXPEDIA.com or TRAVELOCITY.com (2 of my relatives need the same done through tickets they bought on travelocity.com for $1200)

on a side note. I found tickets from LAX to MVD 12/13-1/3 for $830 roundtrip with all taxes. AA LAX-MIA, Varig MIA-GRU, Pluna GRU-MVD
Return Pluna MVD-GRU, United Gru-MIA-LAX

All help is much appreciated!
