They issued a replacement ticket at no charge, and told me that if my original was used within six months, they would bill me for it. This was my first experience flying. I was a college student with no credit cards and no checking account, and was quite relieved that they would issue a replacement on my word. There was no charge then, but $20 isn't too bad when you consider the cost of tickets. I suspect that smaller airlines may have less generous policies, since they can less easily afford the loss if some one does falsely get a replacement, use both tickets, and then skip out on the payment.
