I don't really want to track down a notary among the many things on my travel schedule, and I know I will not be able to find all the receipts.

Appreciate your advice!

thanks.

I don't know about USAirways, but when I filed a claim on Northwest, the form requested that I send receipts, and I didn't have all of them. They still paid in full.

Any bank has a notary on staff, so you should be able to pop into one to get your form notarized.
