Yup, I meant it. The web page statement is not the same as a written policy. It doesn't mean they are contractually bound to do anything -- if your fare didn't qualify, they could just tell you they were denying it because it wasn't available.

Besides, are you really going to go to court over a $50 CRC issue? For most of us, I would think that would be time wasted.
