Onto my next question. I'm booking a flight for my sister and with my combination of ETCs and FFCs. All expiring 12/31/23. Which ones should I use first? Is one better to get rid of first?...
ETC expiration is book by, travel can be later. FFC expiration is start travel by. So a longer period of usefulness for ETCs

no differences, changes become effective FFCs
