[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. 
It's not going to work because she has to fly American (it's the only airline with direct flights to this destination) and she's flown with them in the past.  I can't imagine I can book a new ticket for the same name and same billing address but change the birth date without raising some sort of flag.

If it wasn't for this I would just have her change her birth date by a month for the booking.  [/quote]

This is the unavoidable logistics problem, I think.  Unless she can fly a different airline.  (Ethics aside ... and I am a rule-follower, as is my child, but given the airlines' attachment to outrageous fees I can understand the temptation).  United, for example, definitely has my kid's birthdate in their system if we log into my account and/or use her frequent flyer number.  I might be tempted to try purchasing as a "guest" without using her frequent flyer number and see if you can buy a ticket without the system automatically applying the fee.[/quote]
