As long as your CC statement isn't ending in the next 2 days, go with the fully refundable ticket is my suggestion.
If the agent won't sell the ticket, then call 1800 433 7300; I'm pretty sure they will. And you'd save $5 over buying it at the counter.

I still say go with the refundable ticket from the get-go. Buy it before you go to the airport - that allows you to pick out the cheapest one and check in online. Adults asking other adults for "permission" to go to an airport gate? Not me. F that. I just walk on thru with my BP.
