Turns out they didn't need either of us on the list and there were 2 seats available. The agent said it often happens when the game is televised and fully refundable tickets are booked by ESPN, donors, corporate execs, etc. in the event they cannot travel via corporate jet.
Was that $622 in cash or voucher?

Ouch! Looks like only Y and B fares to/from BTR and very few seats into/from PIT on Friday and Sunday. ND/Pitt game is in PIT on Saturday too...
Yeah, I have a feeling I'm going to end up on AA/UA. It's going to be an ugly weekend. My only hope is that I can get time Saturday morning to go over to Shanksville, PA to check out the UA93 memorial...
