Apologies for hi-jacking, another first time DONE4 Q: what airlines can make date changes once travel is underway? (JL the next carrier on my itin wants to refer me back to the carrier who issued the tick)
Also, can carriers change dates for other carriers' segments, or must I contact them all separately? Thanks.

Some airlines (BA, QF in particular) will hit you with a "service fee" for any changes, including date/flight changes without a re-route. You also run the risk of the whole PNR getting goofed up if the airline making the change uses a different GDS than the one issuing the ticket - see the "left hand/right hand" thread now current.
Who issued your ticket? Is it super hard to contact them? That would be what I'd do.
