(2) changing routing at a connection point? (e.g., if i book SFO-LAX-IAH, can i change [upon arrival at LAX] to LAX-DEN-IAH [assuming fare class availability and also LAX-IAH routing rules])?
#1 should be easy as long as there is space
#2 not available in the app/online but you maybe able to get a phone agent to change it for free. YMMV I tried to change my EWR HKG to EWR SFO HKG and they waived the change fee but not the fare difference, this is a different case though. If its an overnight connection then it should be slightly easier.
In the last month I've been told by 2 agents to SDC before I fly the first leg. After flying the first leg, even real 1K phone agents have to get a supervisor to do certain changes.
