With EU261, AC offers 900 euro in vouchers or 600 in cash.
Until I read online I didnt know about the uselessness of those vouchers, I learned:
*you pay the whole thing, then get a refund AFTER flying (maybe?)
*cannot be split, no residual
*do not apply to surcharge
*cover only one pax on the itinerary
So basically I would have had to find a ticket with $1300 base fare just for me, and still pay AC hundreds of dollars on top of that for 'surcharges'.
