In the email I can go online and make changes. I know the flights are higher now, would I be able to get the fare difference waived online or is this something I would have to call to do and may a YMMV experience? It can be quite difficult getting an agent these days with 4 hour+ wait times

Thanks in advance.
Given the 2+ hour schedule change, you should be able to get different flights without fare difference provided they are on the same dates (sometimes they will let you changes dates within a day or two, but that is not formal policy).
