Am I out of luck, as I assume this can't be updated?
Not one of my finest moments

One of the booking on hold is for my two parents it's a one way ticket and I will pay for it now. But looks like the dates I selected are not ok for them. Obviously it's too late to change the dates so I was thinking about paying now and try to change the dates online. In case this is unsuccessful, I guess I can still get a full refund of those tickets right ?
Considering the fare conditions say so and that I am using the US website...

If my ticket is on Delta stock, I will earn 400% RDM via Virgin Atlantic? Someone tell me why this wont work/is a bad idea

Well, grabbed 1.5 of these. DL stock and flight numbers -- not sure if that will make much difference (vs AF flight numbers) in honoring these.
Someone at AF (or DL?) is gonna have quite a headache sorting this one out...

You'll be able to cancel penalty free with these fares, but you won't be able to change things without paying the difference between this mistake fare and the normal P fare - which means you're on the hook for an easy five figures.

I missed a couple of good fares a few years ago playing this game and adapted in much the same way.
