Never cease to be amazed ...

Chatting yesterday with a fellow who'd just 'discovered' that he could gift tickets to his kids.
Turns out he's got a pile of 'plastic-points', & is (well, *was*) under the impression that letting the card-company book his travel is a 'good deal'.
Y'all know the story: has no FFP affiliations & takes whatever they hand him. (And, no surprise, isn't entirely sure who 'they' are !)
The concept of churning tickets through a cash-back card completely blew his mind.

So, now begins the 'salvage' work...
??: Anybody have any experience/success getting FF credit applied to these oddball 'award' tickets ?? (Fax-in afterwards, whatever.. )

Might well turn out to be my xmas gift to him. ^
