Transfer Ticket
I have a trip planned to Tokyo Nov. 4 -11th. Unfortunately do to recent events my travel partner does not want to take this trip. My tickets are non-refundable and I think I have found a back up travel companion but my tickets also say "non-transferable." I'm willing to pay a change fee, but I am not willing to pay $100 change fee PLUS $150 fare difference. Any chance Northwest will grant a little leniency? Any suggestions?

My friend purchased a ticket from NWA.com last week.
The next day he would like to change the return date, however the NWA toll-free number asked him to call back later because of the high volume calls.
He could not reach a NWA Customer Service Representative by the mid-night, therefore he was forced to pay the $100 penalty.
Here is a copy of NWA Purchase Policy on NWA.com:
