Anyone know how this works for government-imposed shelter in place? In my specific example, I have a flight booked on an airline that only travels to two locations from the United States and my flight has been cancelled but so far they're only offering a voucher for future travel. With their very limited footprint I won't be traveling to anywhere they travel in the next 12mo so I don't want to get stuck with an unusable voucher.
