goalie, I'll throw my two cents in as well. I would never accept a $600 domestic ecert (2-300s, 3-200s, 4-150s, yes).
Your 20% international will probably save you only $250 off your upcoming trip.
If I were you I'd call 1K Customer Service and talk them into giving you a $600 International cert instead. This plane shouldn't have been flying with passengers as you have described it. If they won't do that, suggest they give you multiple domestic certs instead in usable dollar amounts.
