When I called BA to change my date, the agent couldn't do it, said I'd have to call my travel agent, which I don't have, then gave me the number 041-441-8600 Finallly said she'd have someone contact me within the next couple days so I wouldn't have to call overseas. So I tried the AA RTW desk. A very pleasant agent said they might be able to help but would have to send to fares to make sure all the taxes were collected properly and reissue on American stock. She said there may be costs due if not correctly processed. I wouldn't mind that so much, but I fear they will re-price at the fare as if originating in US. I purchased from BA at CPT origin price.

What do you think? Should I wait for a call, call the number in SA myself, or hope for the best with the AA desk? I'd love to be on AA since I have some further changes to make down the road, and I know others have done this without penalty. Is the "repricing" as ominous as it sounds?
