Possible to Change ticket within 24 hours of bookin without fee?
Hello!
I know the risk free cancellation policy lets me cancel a ticket within 24 hours of booking... But I was wondering if It was possible for them to let me change the ticket (specifically change the fare class with me paying the difference) without canceling the ticket or paying the change fee?
The reason Im asking is because the booking was made by a friend whom I don't want to deal with the hassle of rebooking the ticket that they just booked for me.
Blessings!

-If the reason why you want to rebook the ticket to save your friend some hassle, you can cancel and rebook the same reservation again (with the same fare code and everything) and it'll charge on your card instead of your friend's.

Not gonna happen. Airlines don't want two forms of payment, let alone payment from two parties. Cancel (refunding original to purchaser) and rebook, or reconcile to living with the itinerary & class as booked presently.
