Default Changing Transmission Fluid

Does the 2009 Accord (EXL V6) have a Transmission fluid drain plug similar to an oil change? If so is it easy to change? Is it just a matter of draining and re-filling? I've read in some threads it should be done twice to be sure the maximum amount of dirty fluid is being drained.

It should have one. If you drain/fill before it has a chance to get dirty, then you probably don't need to repeat. Auto tranny torque converter doesn't drain, so you only drain about 1/3 of the fluid. Repeating the process is important IF the fluid is dirty.
