Could I do that once the trip has begun already? In this case, NWA used to just allow you to change the flight without a penalty (minus the change fee) as long as the same fare bucket was available.
Does anyone know the rules for changing your ticket once the trip has begun?
1. You haven't provided any details of the fare basis or esact route on which you are ticketed and the change(s) you want to make. Any answers you get here are based on incomplete information.
2. But, presuming that you are on a pretty standard non-refundable/changeable ticket, you can make the change to the return, but it will cost $250 + fare difference for the route. That could be a lot or a little depending on exact routing + dates.
3. As always, when you have questions such as this, why not call UA and ask directly. Let them look it up, calculate it and tell you, before you start worrying.
