I have a FFC that has a flight confirm number with it. If one cancels a TravelBank credit flight (after 24 hours) and cancels a seperate Travel Cert flight (after 24 hrs) will those two new FFCs be tied to new confirm numbers? If one now has 3 FFCs all with different confirm numbers, one can use all three to pay for a single new flight?
