No, you will still have to pay the change fee (as per the fare conditions). And also any fare differences: if the same fare bucket is no longer available on your new travel date you will have to pay the difference between the original and the new fare bucket. But the system will use the fare as per the original ticketing date (i.e. if the fares have gone up, the 'old' fares will be used in the calculation). At least that's how I understand this to work. If anyone has better information, I would be interested to hear it!
