So the actual path of flight 922 is MIA -> LPB -> VVI and return is LPB -> VVI -> MIA. What should be reasonably simple (instead of getting off in LPB I stay on until VVI and on return I would be boarding in VVI instead of LPB) seems impossible without completely canceling and reissueing the ticket (currently with a change fee of $100 and fare increase of $600).

In talking with CS at AA (who was very nice and trying to be helpful) had no alternatives other than: 1) cancel and reissue, it seems the LPB -> VVI segment can't be booked separately so I can't simply add that and I can't just not board return in LPB and instead board in VVI, 2) find an alternate carrier in LPB to get round trip LPB -> VVI and nest this flight in my original.

Are there any other options anyone can suggest other than 1) and 2)?

Thanks,
