Changing your travel dates

A date change can involve seat availability, fare differences and airline rules. The cost and available alternatives are specific to the ticket and the new flights you choose.

Flight Date Change information

Fare difference versus change fee

Even when an airline does not charge a traditional change fee, a higher fare on the new flight may still create an additional amount due.

Check the entire itinerary

Changing one segment can affect connections, return flights or other parts of the reservation. Review the complete itinerary before confirming a change.

Change before departure

Many tickets become more restrictive after a scheduled flight is missed. If your plans have changed, contact the servicing agency or airline before departure whenever possible.

Travel policies, schedules, fares and availability can change. Always review the rules that apply to your specific itinerary before purchasing or modifying travel.

Frequently asked questions

Can I move my flight to another day?

It depends on the airline rules, ticket conditions and availability on the requested date.

Why is my new flight more expensive?

The originally booked fare may no longer be available. A fare difference can apply when the new itinerary is priced at a higher fare.

Can I change only my return flight?

It may be possible, depending on the ticket and airline rules. The full reservation should be reviewed before making the change.
