I have a question, I have never had to change my flight on Alaska, but the way the waiver seems to work, am I correct that they collect the change fee on the back-end (when you rebook using the travel wallet credit) or do they take the fee on the front-end (when you cancel the ticket)?
If you booked a ticket within this window, there should be no change fee at all. If you booked a $249 flight... and you need to cancel it, you'll get $249 credit to spend on Alaska at a later time. If you rebook to a different flight, you'll only have to pay the fare difference if the new flight is more expensive. If the new flight is cheaper, not sure... maybe the difference gets stored as a credit?
