Alright, just pulled the trigger on this. The nice thing about booking a stopover is that the base fare then becomes >$0 (my base fares look to be ~$120/ticket) so the odds of the tickets being honored possibly increase.

I am actually scheduled to be in Bucharest from September 13 through September 22, 2007.
Because of the 352-day advance, I can only book up until September 20.
That figures — just my luck.
Is there any chance I can change the return date three days later after booking, or will I get zinged with a change fee and a drastic increase in the airfare?
Does anyone have any suggestions before this fare is pulled?
I greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Someone did this in the early pages of the AZ YYZ-LCA deal and they were saying that they hoped they were rewarded for "narcing" and that their ticket would be honored and AZ would praise them.
Really not building community in my book.

This looks like a great deal for ST flyers. If it were *A I would jump on it. Still contemplating it. I scored a family vacation for my family with the AZ deal, this could be the next one.

1. Thou Shalt Not Call The Airline Until WELL AFTER The Fare Is Pulled.
You see, when you call the airline, they realize they've made a mistake. When they realize they've made a mistake, they pull the fare. When the rest of us can't get in on the fare, we get very, very testy.
So now you know.

In the meantime, if anyone can answer my request which I have quoted, I would greatly appreciate it.
Again, thank you in advance.
