Then on the change I got an agent in Boise. While she could see CX availability no problem, she did not know the ticket needed reissue. I had to reiterate to her a few times that based on all my prior experiences, any change of a partner award ticket, there must be a reissue. So she went to check and came back after a long hold, to give me the new ticket numbers.
My anecdotes are mirroring yours. My most recent CX award was booked by a young-sounding Seattle agent who admitted that she was still new to CX bookings but managed to coax the system into returning the same availability as BA. But I just talked to a Boise agent last night about a schedule change for my AA award... and apparently she didn't reissue the ticket.
