Changing/Cancelling Restricted Tickets
Hi all -
Does anyone have recent experience changing or cancelling restricted tickets? I bought a ticket that is non-changeable and non-refundable, but I am wondering if there is anything I could do if I can't make the flight.
Should I upgrade the ticket to a higher class and then apply for a refund? Will that work?

What was not clear on the non-changeable and non-refundable rule?
Anyway if you bring a good excuse which is backup by an official document
