Can two fare classes in the same cabin carry different change terms?

Yes, potentially—but the cited conditions do not provide a specific same-cabin example or establish a universal rule. They state that different fare types are subject to different Fare Rules and prices. Those Fare Rules include information about whether a fare can be changed or cancelled.

The relevant distinction is therefore the fare type and its applicable Fare Rules, not the cabin classification alone. Two fare types may carry different change terms even when passengers occupy the same cabin, but the exact pair must be checked.

How to check the exact pair

A traveler should:

  1. Identify the exact fare type associated with each fare.
  2. Locate the Fare Rules that apply to each fare type.
  3. Compare whether changing is permitted under each ruleset.
  4. Review any change conditions expressly stated in those rules.
  5. Avoid assuming that a shared cabin—or a difference in price—proves that the change terms are identical.

The cited wording does not say that every pair of different fare types has a different change outcome. Different Fare Rules may differ in other respects as well. The supported conclusion is narrower: different fare types can have different rules, and those rules determine what change options are stated.

What still requires confirmation

The cited conditions do not provide a universal change fee, deadline, or same-cabin exception. They also do not establish the exact terms for a particular pair of fare classes. Those details must be confirmed against the Fare Rules applicable to each exact fare type.
