Airline Ticket Exchange and Flight Reissue

If you already have an airline ticket and need a different flight, the existing ticket may need to be exchanged or reissued. The available option depends on the airline, fare rules, ticket status, availability and who controls the ticket.

A change can also require the itinerary to be repriced. Depending on the ticket and new itinerary, a fare difference or other applicable charges may need to be reviewed before the exchange is completed.

Change Your Flight Date or Time

Moving to another date or flight can require new availability and repricing. The original ticket rules and the price of the new itinerary can affect the exchange.

Change Your Route or Destination

A change to the origin, destination or routing can require a different fare calculation and may not be permitted by every fare. The ticket and requested itinerary should be reviewed before confirming the change.

If the exchange does not provide a workable itinerary, you can also search new flights.

Business, First & Premium Economy Changes

Premium-cabin tickets can also require exchange or reissue when the travel date, flight, routing or cabin changes. Availability in the requested cabin can affect the new itinerary and price.

Review flight upgrade options when the request also involves a cabin change.

Partially Used Ticket Exchange

If part of the itinerary has already been flown, changing the remaining trip can require a more detailed reissue calculation. The used portion, remaining coupons, fare rules and requested new itinerary can all matter.

Call BookMyReservations to review the itinerary.

Have the passenger name, airline, travel dates and booking or ticket information ready so the itinerary can be reviewed.

What Is a Ticket Reissue?

Changing a reservation does not necessarily complete the ticket change. When an eligible ticketed itinerary is modified, the ticket may need to be exchanged or reissued so that it reflects the new itinerary and applicable fare. Airline and fare-specific rules determine the required process.

Fare Difference When Exchanging a Flight Ticket

The cost of an exchange is not determined only by whether a change fee applies. The new itinerary may be priced differently from the original one. If the applicable new fare is higher, an additional fare amount may be due. If it is lower, treatment of any remaining value depends on the ticket and applicable rules.

Exchange an Unused Airline Ticket

If no portion of the ticket has been flown, there may be options to apply eligible ticket value toward a new itinerary. The permitted change, ticket validity, fare restrictions and current availability need to be checked before an exchange is completed.

Changing the Return Flight After Travel Has Started

If the outbound portion has already been flown and you need to change the continuing or return trip, the remaining ticket may require recalculation and reissue. This can be more complex than changing a wholly unused ticket, so the existing itinerary and ticket should be reviewed before booking replacement space.

For general itinerary-change assistance, see flight change options.

When a New Ticket May Be a Better Option

An exchange is not always available or practical. If the existing fare rules do not permit the requested change, the ticket cannot be serviced by BMR, or the available exchange does not meet your travel needs, a new reservation may need to be considered.

Search available flights or call (877) 213-9599 to review flight-booking options.

Important: Ticket exchange and reissue rules vary by airline, fare, ticket status, itinerary and issuing provider. BookMyReservations does not guarantee that every ticket can be changed, exchanged or reissued. Applicable pricing and options should be reviewed before confirming a transaction.

Information to Have Ready

Have the passenger name, airline, current travel dates, origin and destination, and booking or ticket information available. If you already know the new date, route or cabin you want, have those details ready as well. Do not send payment-card information by email.

Ticket Exchange & Reissue FAQs

Can I exchange an airline ticket for a different flight?

Possibly. Exchange eligibility depends on the airline, ticket status, fare rules, availability and who controls the ticket. The new itinerary may also require repricing.

What is an airline ticket reissue?

When an eligible ticketed itinerary is changed, the ticket may need to be exchanged or reissued so the ticket reflects the new itinerary and applicable fare.

Will I have to pay a fare difference when changing a flight?

A fare difference may apply when the new itinerary costs more than the applicable value used from the original ticket. Other charges may also apply depending on the fare rules and ticket.

Can a partially used airline ticket be exchanged?

Some partially used tickets may have eligible change or reissue options, but calculation can be more complex because part of the itinerary has already been flown. Fare rules and ticket status must be reviewed.

Can BookMyReservations exchange every airline ticket?

No. The issuing agency, airline, ticket status and fare rules determine who controls the ticket. Another provider may need to handle a ticket it controls.

Will I know the new price before confirming?

The applicable itinerary and pricing are reviewed before proceeding. Availability and fares can change until the transaction is completed.

Is BookMyReservations the airline?

No. BookMyReservations is an independent travel service operated by Shiv Travel & Tours LLC.
