Fare Hold
I am wondering if anyone has used the Fare Hold facility of late?
I have only ever used it for international fares in the past and recall receiving reminders the hold expires in 'x days' or 'x hours'.
This week I used the facility for 2 domestic trips, but no reminders.
Any experiences?

Used it a few times whilst waiting for family members to decide on schedules- at $1 it gives additional flexibility over buying and then cancelling a Flexidate.
The ‘hold’ Lasts for 3 days. The $1 fee shows up on the ticket receipt forever after.
