Clarity on this subject would be appreciated.
I think that what you saying is that changing a connection into a stopover will attract both a $125 change fee and a recalculation of taxes and surcharges. I would agree with that. However, I do not think that changing a connection into a stopover could/should have the impact of causing a reprice of the base xONEx fare. If you believe the latter, I'd appreciate understanding why that is so (and where this action is supported in the fare rules). TIA!
