Well they had another fare that was main cabin for the same cost, but it left GEG at 1:45 pm instead of 7:05 am, which my dad would've actually preferred since he lives over 2 hrs from the airport.

I called delta for him, they'll change the ticket for 50 dollar change fee and 77 dollar fare increase, the BE fare was 493. I tried to see if they'd change it to the 1:45 pm flight but they said no. If they had it would've only costed the 50 dollar change fee since the fare was the same for the later main cabin flight. He does have a $100 certificate, but I don't think you can use those for changes, right?
