Our friends have tickets that they may not be able to use. My understanding is that the ticket can only be reissued in their names.

Is this correct?
Pay the $200 change fee to exchange the existing ticket to the cheapest itinerary you can find, any residual value between the old and new tickets will be issued in the form of a travel certificate that can be used by anyone.
