Why not a compromise with "use it or lose it:"...
As it stands (if it stands), the airlines will only allow full fares to have any leeway withou a fee. Why not make the rules similar to upgradable fares:
1) Only the lowest fares will be "use it or lose it"
2) Some restricted fares will allow same day standby without fee
3) On irregular days, agents should have the authority to place pax from any ticket on a flight with seats if there are delays or overbookings forcast.
4) Enforce the change fee/ Enforce the advance notice of the change/ Don't hold us to a new date.
