well what about if you:

1- Endorse the ticket over to another carrier.

2-buy a more expensive tix, also full flex with a different credit card.

3- refund that tix.

4- the Second credit card would 'refund' the excess payment to its 'original' form of payment, i.e. the second credit card.

5-cut a paper check to you.

6-deposit the check and pay of the original issuer.

Do the Gurus see any reason why this would not work???

I am completely unfamiliar with the process of endorsing over tickets.

In reality, how does endorsing a ticket work? how does one do this?
