I'm not sure how long I've been using xONEx and xCIRxx products, maybe 12-15 years? It's always been the case that changes to date, time, carrier are permitted without incurring the $125 fee, which has only been charged when the route is changed. Changing the carrier requires a reissue, I believe. Likewise, if one tickets a flight in L on a DONEx, and later D opens up or one switches to a flight that has D, the $125 fee has never been charged even though a change to booking code requires a reissue. The "AFTER DEPARTURE CHARGE USD 125.00 FOR NO-SHOW/REISSUE" wording can be read in context to mean reissue after no-show. People who know more than I do have explained that "CHANGES ARE PERMITTED PROVIDED TICKETED POINTS REMAIN THE SAME" means that it is not required to charge the $125 fee for a reissue if ticketed points remain the same, especially since elsewhere it says that changes are permitted to the ticketed points with a $125 fee.
