Flight date change and impact on DSC

[aweingar]

Hello,

I booked a return flight as part of the March 2023 DSC promo but now I need to change the dates.
The new dates will still be well within the promo period.

My understanding is that the date change has no impact on the DSC eligibility.

I'm also assuming that, if the new dates result in higher SC total being awarded (for example, by having a stopover instead of a direct flight), this new SC total will be fully eligible for the DSC.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks.

This has always been the case for me over the years, as long as you stay within the allowed travel period. And yes, flights I have changed from flex Y to paid J have gotten the appropriate J SCs x2. Changing say BNE-PER to BNE-MEL-PER will also get more SCs x2. Everything is tied to the PNR which doesn't change unless you cancel the flight.

It will be fine.

Yes, when you change your flights be very sure that the consultant does not accidentally cancel them and sell you new ones on a new PNR - that will see the DSC lost.
