You know that you *could* just go to NWA.com and look there, right? It's not hard at all. That's one reason I always want to be plat. Change award tickets at will, cancel, no fees, or anything.
I didn't see any information about taxes on nwa.com, that's why I asked here. Not to mention sometimes, what it says on nwa.com is not always exactly what happens in practice (eg Romania thread) so I would rather hear it from people who had personal experience.
Of course, I'd love to be plat except it'll cost me a lot more money than award flight changing fees to get there.
