Covid ticketing

Hello,

am planning to buy sin-dxb-ath and get a free region change to sin-dxb-dus. But the return leg, I will probably need to change after I have flown the first leg. Is it allowed? Do I have to pay? Or the free date and region change will still apply for the return leg? That means that I can even do an open jaw, maybe CDG-DXB-Sin if possible for the return

I did this a few months ago. Having flown the outbound leg I was able to then change the return to a different location. In my case it was because of covid restrictions, however, I was never asked for any particular reason, I just called and changed the return destination.

I would also check the option of just booking the flights you want through advanced booking as it may be the same price anyway and that would save you having to rebook.

I just did a dummy booking of SIN-DUS return vs SIN-DUS, CDG-SIN and the latter was 70 SGD cheaper...

Thanks! The Twitter team said no change fee but there is payment for fare difference if any

Yes fair difference has always been the case otherwise everyone would do it as a way of booking cheaper tickets. But like I said in my previous post, from the dummy booking I did, it worked out cheaper to book through advance booking and book your return from CDG rather than trying to change it afterwards.
