We called at the LAN office in town today. Unhelpful clerk says "Impossible to change. You call BA" After a little gentle persuasion, she accepts change is indeed possible on these tkts but says nothing in L class till March 2. (LAN flies 4 air buses a day on this route). There are lots of seats in Y of course - have checked Expedia.
There are only seats in Y, B, H and sometimes K.
Most flights are Y7 B7 H7 K0 M0 L0 V0 X0 S0 N0 Q0 O0 G0 A0.

Is waitlisting actually permitted on this fare? I have a feeling it isn't, but there's no reference in the rules.
