If so, do the funds have to be used within one year of the travel agency charge? And they can be used for anyone's travel?

Thanks...
I can't speak for all of the OTAs, but from what I recall, Amex Travel gave me a credit that I could use on only Alaska airlines, but I still had to call Amex Travel to use it. Perhaps there was another work around I wasn't aware of, or things have changed since. The credit had a year expiration on it.
