Got my flight to Jackson on Delta Sky Miles. Trip there is smooth. Leaving at 7 am, arriving in Jackson at 12:30 pm. No problem. Flight home sucks. 6:10 am departure to Salt Lake, then fly to LA, then to Tampa- WTF? Anyone have luck changing their flight with Sky Miles half way through the trip? I am thinking that even if it costs me $50 to change the itinerary, it is worth it. Will this work?
Either way, it is free, so I took it. I will figure it out later.
Not sure with Delta, but I know with United, changes to reward travel is free provided you do so before you begin travel. Once travel has started however, no changes to the itenerary are allowed.Quote:

Yeah, looks like I am flying all day on the 10th. The flight from LA to Tampa is on Song, so at least I get TV the whole way home. I should be pretty wiped out anyway. 5 days straight skiing tends to kick my ass these days.
