CC payment refund would show up on your CC about a week or 10 days. A new E-cert with the same amount as the balance before, will come in mail around same time with new expiration date.

DONT book any refundable ticket to complicate the matter.

Yes, if you have 2 vouchers you need to repeat the same process.
Happy or anyone:
Do anyone know about AA? I booked a flight and AA sent me $300 voucher which will expire next month. Should I book a refundable flight or non-refundable flight? Can I use this kind of voucher to book online?

How about UA?

Thank you!
