You can change the return flight - time and date only - but not the destination. Gonna cost you $75 to change it. If you need to travel to SFO/SJC you could use the return portion (plus $75) to position yourself in a city most economically reaching to SFO.

Could you take the ticket to United and ask them to accept it - for the face value shown - and construct a routing of BWI- connecting in SFO - for a flight to LAS??? You could always walk away in SFO providing you did not check luggage. Offer them a $75 change fee for the change in date of travel. They would collect the face value of the ticket from the clearing house and add your $75 service charge to it.

Let me know.

Apparently I can change the date or time just not the destination. Any suggestions on making the change? Worst case, I'll just hop a Southwest or National flt. from Vegas, but I'd rater save that $100 and a few hours.
