Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all your advice on how to handle our Delta ticket situation. I called Delta this morning and actually spoke with the friendliest rep! He couldn't help, since the tickets were ticketed by Continental but he assured me that it wouldn't be a problem to change the tickets and he gave me the name of a Delta supervisor in case I encountered a problem.

I then called Continental and spoke with a supervisor there. He had no problem adjusting the flights for us and it worked out in our favor.

We're going to leave a day earlier and fly from JFK to DKR to CPT. We won't have to connect in JNB so we just saved a few bucks since we won't to buy those one way JNB-CPT tickets. And, for some reason the taxes went down so we got a small refund.

My Continental account is already reflecting the changed itinerary. As soon as my Delta account shows the change, we'll select seats and then we should be good to go.

Phew! That was a LOT easier than I thought it would be!!

Judy: I'm so glad John is finally feeling better. I know what a tough recovery that can be. And, you're so smart to stay over in Atlanta the night before. I think it will make the flights to Africa a bit easier.

Thanks everyone!

Andrea
