if we had a death in the family and i would like to change the flight date what are the steps necessary?
Well, this comes from experience and it is not solely in regard to Mexico. If you need to change your flight, I suggest you contact the airline directly. Even if you purchased the ticket through a site or agency, my experience was that the airline was much more helpful. In my case, I had to change the ticket for another destination. My husband suffered a massive heart attack in another city, while I was visiting my father. I did have to pay extra to change the flight destination, but after giving them his name, hospital and phone number, they waived the extra fees. In the case of a death, the more information you can provide will help and depending upon the airline, they may be able to save you some money.
