Ethiopian ticket changes: choose the exchange channel for your departure date

Direct website or app bookings may have a self-service change option. Submitting an exchange request is not a fixed-price confirmation of a replacement flight. First identify your original seller, scheduled departure, and desired new itinerary. Use the channel that fits that timing rather than submitting duplicate requests. When the booking was issued by an agent, ask that seller who will control the exchange before starting a separate airline request. Review the fare rules and request a complete quote before authorizing a paid change. Keep a record of what you approved, and verify the reissued ticket rather than relying on a form submission screen. Recheck baggage, connections, seats, and any special service on the new flights before treating the change as finished.
