Great question. The answer will be very helpful for those who are considering using MR right now to book airline tickets which now have a much higher chance of being cancelled (even if we’re not trying to cash out MR).

Is that the usual refund method (instead of refunding MR)? Were your tickets specifically refundable? Any cancellation fees or penalties? How long ago? Thank you.
