Our Pacific and European customers are going to think Delta is modeling after this airline (with all of our DC9s, ERs and MD88s) Look at this video it is hilarious.

Is there a penalty if you change the ticket?
Just found the answer in FAQ, $100 to make a change or cancel.

I was initially amazed and happy that I got a week of summer vacation when my whole crowd is out of school. Then I started to realize how much that's going to cost me

It could easily get in the air (location and financial status depending). Did a three week "deployment" helicopter swap out from Spain to Afghanistan where we had three tails constantly in the air. Guys in the squad wanted to make the 0-6 who thought it up look really smart, so whenever in the gray area we were going. 98 percent launch rate.
