That was me on twitter... didn't really clear anything up, or if it did, just proved that they don't want me to change... to me that says I can't cancel my first flight and rebook to an earlier day without paying the $99 change fee.

What I'd like to do is cancel the first leg of my RT and forefeit the $45 I paid for it, then book a one way the day before for $60 while still keeping the return leg of the original trip.

So if I can just forfeit the first leg and rebook the day before for the new rate I will lose the $45 I paid for the first leg.

If I change my flight to the day before, I have to pay the $99 change fee plus the $15 difference in the flight, so that will cost me $114 ($54 more than just forfeiting and rebooking).
