Wow that’s not good news. I need to change my 2 tickets as well and I only transferred in 10k. Ouch, $57 for 2k points.
It wouldn't let me change on the Qantas site and called it in and they said ELAl doesn't let changes so had to cancel and rebook. Yes I checked and it was the 747.
Did you have to wait for the points to post back to your account or they let you rebook right away? (Or you had enough points anyway?) It sounds like it could take a month for points to be returned.
Changed this to:LY TLV-EWR J X2on the 787.Paid 6k QF points to cancel each one and then rebooked it.
Did the availability open up for you after you booked the original flight?
Yup. But don't think that would be the case in most cenarios.
why not?
Bec it has to be available in X class which I don't see available too often.
I just changed an Elal booking for tomorrow no problems

Nice! Why just J on the last leg? Seema like a pointless J.
So weird that by me it didn't work.
Its weird because one phone rep said you can't change it?
No Bec he was able to do it online and I wasn't.
Ah. You sure he did it online?
