Standard that booking after the travel waiver was posted are not included
However, in the case of the California fires waiver, it was first 9-11, then 9-13 then 9-16 and now 9-23.
At the time of booking was the date cover by the waiver? If not you can push that angle.
If they did book in the waiver period, it gets tricky as the agent may suspect an attempt to use the waiver to get a better flight otherwise not available. However a HUCA might work in that case.
