Way to use a voucher?
I got a $500 voucher last year due to an issue on a flight I took in 2021 during a period when positivity rates in France were super low. Since the COVID situation got worse this year and masks were removed from planes, I wasn't able to make another trip on AirFrance, though I would really like to. My voucher is expiring in a few days and AF customer service won't allow an extension. Any ideas on how I can use or extend it without committing to a specific trip date?

In that case, the advise is to book a flexible ticket in the economy or business class for a trip on a random date in 2023. You can use your Air France voucher as a way of payment and the rest of the amount can be paid by card. If you don't want to travel, just ask for a refund before the first flight.
