Assuming the GC route is truly dead...
Does anyone know other ways to take advantage of the reimbursement and end up with funds in your AS wallet? For instance, if I purchase extra bags for an upcoming flight then show up with less bags and ask for a refund at the airport, can they refund to your online wallet -- or only back to the CC?
Open to creative solutions here, as an incidental fee refund doesn't provide much utility to those of us with status.
