Many thanks in advance

If you've already travelled the outbound sector and the return sector is on the same e-ticket/booking reference then the official answer is no. All amendments to redemption bookings need to be made at least 24hrs prior to the first flown sector. Booking 2x one ways in the first place would have given you more flexibility in this scenario.

Jerry A Alaska - I always thought this was the case and you've got me doubting my own advice now. Happy to be corrected if indeed I'm out of touch with reality.
