Travel Forum / Travel Types / Air Travel / February 2008Will this trick work to extend a free travel voucher?
I won a pair of airline tickets last year, or actually a prize voucher, enabling me to travel anywhere in the US that American Airlines flies. The voucher however buys a quite restricted class of seats, and I have been unable to book travel for a time convenient with my schedule. The deadline for using the voucher is approaching and I don't think I'll be able to use it now, as there are no available seats for dates that I would want to be flying. A friend suggested that I might book flights using the voucher, for whatever date the airline can accommodate me, then once booked, call American and reschedule for a date in the future (beyond the expiration date). She said that she'd had a restricted voucher once (I think for being bumped from a flight) and was able to get a flight after the voucher's expiration by doing this. Sounds almost too good to be true though. Does this technique work? > I won a pair of airline tickets last year, or actually a prize > voucher, enabling me to travel anywhere in the US that American [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Sounds almost too good to be true though. Does this technique work? Is there some reason you don't call American Airlines to ask if they would allow this? >> I won a pair of airline tickets last year, or actually a prize >> voucher, enabling me to travel anywhere in the US that American [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] >Is there some reason you don't call American Airlines to ask if they >would allow this? Sometimes it's better not to ask. Once the tickets are issued, there may not be any record in the computer that limited-term couchers were used.
