Avios Reward flights change
I booked an Avios flight 48 hrs ago for next week to Dubrovnik, out in Y and return CE, using 21000 miles and £42
My son has just broken his ankle, so need to cancel or maybe bring the return forward by a day
If I cancel I understand that you get Avios back and a £35 charge
If I decided to change to an earlier flight, is it still a £35 charge and do you need to ring up?
Sorry if this is in the wiki, but tried and couldn't find an answer

Begin the cancellation process online and see how much they are going to give you back – the last time I tried this I got everything except 50p due to a slight IT quirk I think.
If that is your case then it would be worth doing.
You might want to 1st check that there are replacement flights available so that you can make another, separate booking. If you call up and change then, my experiences there is a £35 fee – yes
