Looks good to me.
Interesting idea. I didn't think about this. So, when I try to look up potential itineraries on the new website, I can only see at most 2-stop itineraries. How does one book an itinerary like you describe - only via phone?

And what is the policy that allows redeposit with schedule change? Does this work if the ticket has already been half-used? Is there a minimum schedule change that is needed to trigger it?

Thanks so much!
