I recieved a buddy pass from her to travel to Denver in May. She put my info in the system for the buddy pass at least 3-4 months in advance. I was originally told the price would be $150 round trip. As the time got closer to my departure date she called me and said the price has changed. I was confused because I thought I had a set price but she explained in the training class they said the rules changed. She said now if the price increase as time gets closer to departure date the buddy pass price increases also, so than it was 2 weeks before my departure and my amount went up to $325 instead of $150...
Almost none of those details are accurate, so either your being misled or you misunderstood or both.
