WWYD - Plans seriously downsized

<snip> They wouldn't lose the flights, they would just have to pay the change fee and any increase in fare cost when rebooked later...

Seems like OP has it under control, but for others, it seriously depends on the airline policies if this is practical. Do the math, then decide.

For our (my) upcoming trip, it's going to cost me to cancel DH's plane tickets, or to reschedule for both of us. The change fee is more that the cost of the tickets I purchased, so even after they apply the fare to the fee, I still owe a few dollars. So it's actually cheaper to not do anything.

And before anybody asks, no, in this particular situation, the travel insurance will not cover the cost. I checked. YMMV

I would also look at selling the gift card and possibly doing Legoland and Seaworld instead if possible? Not clue on math of these but I would suspect its drastically cheaper and something different you could do.
