Yes, you can. But it's almost easier to just cancel the ticket, redeposit the miles, and start over.

It'll probably be more efficient to just call the platinum hotline directly and have them take care or explain it for you

Yeah, just needs to be done 72 hours before departure - they redeposit the miles for no charge and rebook. It's a benefit for diamonds / platinums.

Good point sometimes I find with delta If you say the "right" thing you get what you need

The key is if a Platinum or Diamond Medallion booked the ticket from their SkyMiles, then you can make free changes up to 72 hours before departure for free. If you are a Platinum or Diamond Medallion and someone who is not a Platinum or Diamond booked a ticket for you, then they are supposed to charge the change fee, but if I call in, I have never been charged for a change with a ticket booked from someone else's SkyMiles account.

Hey fishes. Need your help with a doubt. Can anyone tell me what's the difference between PwC India and PWC SDC? I recently interviewed with PwC India and found them a bit manipulative as in like they kept on insisting and reminding me that the role requires travel to client locations for 7-8months. Also, they kept saying that they cannot offer a hike in my CCTC and they can only match the current fixed component. Is this some sort of a red signal? I don't know. Please help
