Damn, I cannot thank you enough. I went from so stressed out to ecstatic. You are awesome!! And I still have $98.48 just chillin on a flight to LAX in October that I can change at any time. Absolute genius move.
while I would like to claim credit for the refund, the suggest path should have resulted in a new FFC. The cash credit is likely unintentional consequence of the global refund waiver for FAA restrictions
