I know.
Was planning on South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Madagascar, Zambia, Malawi etc...
What a shame.

Is there a way to change the dates on these bookings without fees?

It was. Multiple times. But who do I complain to? Etihad claims that since I bought from Priceline I need to go through them.

So call priceline. And then if they attempt to kick the can down the road, have them conference in Etihad. Or better yet, you do it.

Has anybody had any luck canceling these or receiving any type of reimbursement?

I got a new job and won't be able to go to take my NYC-BOM flight on March 3rd..

A friend of mine was able to cancel no problem for a ticket booked through Orbitz.
