The "funny" thing is, it would actually have been significantly cheaper for me to buy a new, round-trip CPH to LAX plane ticket (on virgin atlantic no less!), and only use one half of the ticket (or better yet -- use it to come back sometime next year!), than it cost to change my existing ticket (originally "free" since the U.S. Govt bought it, but with a ridiculously huge, one could say extortionist, penalty for changing the date) and to get myself from CPH to London. I love the airline industry!

So, why didn't you buy that new, roundtrip ticket?

Because then I would have two tickets and be out $700. That wouldn't be very useful, now, would it?

Of course not, but your post made it sound like the cost to change the ticket was actually more than the cost of a new ticket (in which case, it would have been cheaper for you to ditch the old ticket and buy a new one).

Yes, that's exactly the case. Now why do you think I didn't buy the new ticket?
