But what if I had not yet satisfied a minimum stay requirement? In that case I wouldn't be permitted to change the ticket.</font>
Then you pay the difference between what you paid and what the fare would have been if you were to buy a ticket for that return date in the first place + any service charge.

If i recall correctly - AE companion ticket only require you to be travelling with them one flight. The only strict requirement is that routings must be exactly the same for both.

Then that's too bad. That's not AC's fault.

Then that's an issue between your client and you. Not AC's problem to take care of such issue.
