Do any airlines offer free RT vouchers for IDB anymore? Last one I got was about 2002 and it was a choice between a ticket voucher or travel bucks. I wasn't really flying much then and flying Alaska even less so not sure when AS and others went to the dollar amounts.
(Stupidly I chose the ticket when my needs (and eventual use) were short haul.)

Had the opposite of that a couple of weeks ago. Last to board and the scanner flashed and said already on board. GA said he knew what it was and no, my seat as still empty when I got on.
