Also, food for thought. Can't you just book a refundable flight and purchase PC separately, cancel refundable flight back to card and cancel PC back to wallet, therefore only the PC transaction remains with AMEX? Will AMEX know and clawback the PC transaction knowing that its corresponding flight was cancelled (credited)?

very interesting idea and thanks for sharing! i wouldn't think there's any way for amex to know the transaction was cancelled after the 24 hour mark as it's an as internal transaction at that point. assuming i have success getting credited for the pc selection (was told via chat today to wait 2 weeks), i may give this approach a try. thanks again!
Edit: Not good. Looks like cancelling refundable fare with PC will have PC back to original form of payment. https://www.alaskaair.com/content/tr...preferred-plus

A boardroom membership should count, right? I purchased it about 2 weeks ago and no credit. Now that we’re into 2020 I’m hoping they can apply the credit retroactively. Has anyone seen this?

Most recent report seems to be in October, click HERE. |
$300 for MVP 75K sans restrictions not a bad deal, assuming the SFO lounge groundbreaking is on schedule. By the way, with AS lounge membership, can use most ACs when flying either AS or AA, but not OW?

Alaska Lounge members have access to the select Admirals Club locations "This indicates a link to an external site that may not follow the same accessibility or privacy policies as Alaska Airlines. By selecting a partner link you agree to share your data with these sites." listed below when arriving or departing that day on Alaska Airlines or American Airlines*. Members do not have access to the Admirals Club in San Francisco. |

No mention of OneWorld. I believe Alaska Lounge members use the CX lounge at SFO until their own lounge opens.
CX is in another terminal for most (all, don't know which flights should use international A) AS flights so you would need plenty of time (or like to rush). |
Based on the previous posts, I guess I am SOL. Either I can go with the sure thing of getting the seat upgrades, that I don't really need but can use, or go with SW and possibly have funds I might not be able to use. Oh well.

OK, so if I read bullet one correctly that if a passenger "stays on the same flight," but wants to downgrade his seat, no refund for the originally purchased upgrade is allowed. Third bullet point says that a refundable fare changed will have the "original seat purchase" refunded back to original form of payment. However, nothing is said about the seat upgrade purchase when a refundable ticket is purchased. The fourth bullet point explicitly states that the "ticket price and the seat upgrade fee" will be credited for non-refundable tickets.

Third bulletpoint addresses your question. If you cancel/change a refundable flight the seat purchase fee gets refunded to the original payment

I see "original seat purchase" as the non-upgraded seat, not the seat upgrade we purchase after, which we are legitimately allowed to get credited by Amex. Is that reading too much into it?

Has anyone done this successfully? I am looking to book a refundable ticket to use the amex offer ($40 back on $200 purchase). Also plan to get the 100$ Gold card credit by booking an in cabin pet on the same flight. First time using the credit on AS. Have only used it on UA for the past years. |

So I just spoke to an AS phone rep and she said there should be an option to refund to my wallet even for refundable tickets. And even if this option doesn't show up online, they can certainly do it over the phone. Of course the usual restrictions of using My wallet funds would apply.

What exactly are the restrictions for my wallet funds? Just that you can't use it for premium seating? There is no expiration date is there?
