I have a miniRTW in March I booked through AE. On March 27 I had a flight booked from KIX to MEL with a 20 hour stop in PEK. Last Saturday I found an alternative from KIX-AKL-MEL and phoned in to make the change. It was before any waiver was announced and it is outside the current period in the waiver, but the agent said there will be no change fee. I thought it was because my status changed to 100K, but I am not sure. Anyone know if that was the case or are AC and AE selectively waiving change fees for flights to or through China?
