[QUOTE=somedude24]... the fares on the route have dropped substantially for parties of 2 or more.
I called Continental today to ask for a credit of the difference in the fares (not back on the credit card, just toward future travel), which they said they could do, BUT they would have to charge a $30 change fee per person to reticket at the lower fare, which essentially negates the fare savings.
It is interesting to note that Continental matches JetBlue's lower change fees on the route, but they do not match JetBlue's policy of applying,
with no associated fees

How do I make a change in my reservation?
Changes can be made prior to scheduled departure for a fee of $30 per person plus any applicable difference in airfare. Changes can be made online at jetblue.com, by calling 1-800-JETBLUE (538-2583), or if located in the Dominican Republic, by calling 1-200-9898. Any remaining balance will be placed in a JetBlue air-only credit and may be applied toward future travel for one year. If a reservation is not changed or canceled prior to scheduled departure, all money associated with the reservation is forfeited.
How is CO's policy different from JBLU's?
