If your preferred carrier hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are constantly updated on Expedia.

Can I change the date of my flight from Midway Airport to Ottawa International Airport?
You can make changes to your Chicago Airport to YOW journey through the Expedia Trips portal. But before doing so, look over the fare conditions in your itinerary to see what the airline will let you do and if fees apply for changes.
