I’m an EXP considering booking my first BE fare and am seeking clarification of the bolded language above. I have seen the same caveat elsewhere on FT. But the way I read the AA website , it seems as though same day changes are indeed permissible on BE fares, and that as an EXP I could do that at no charge. Is my interpretation correct?
