You know its not over, right?
The 24 hour risk free cancel policy applies to KL tickets too.
If I were you, I would call, ask for a Supervisor, say you didn't know you were booking via KLM or this problem would occur.
Tell them you don't like it and wish they had a more seamless JV. Also tell them you've learned from it, but could they make a 1 time exception for you and change it to a DL flight number? I bet they'll do it as an even exchange "one time"
