I don't know where's he's been but I was here pretty much and didn't notice it was gone.
I did see that the wiki was deleted by Dan, but that's all. Was there a discussion there before deletion?

Does the $200 airline credit work for Alaska Air GCs? if so what are the recommended denominations to purchase?

IIRC it's not one of the airline options.

Sorry, I thought it wasn't... My advice would be to try it with a $10 card and see if it works. If it doesn't you can get them to switch the airline by phone.

Will paying a United change fee trigger the airline credit?

If you're referring to what I wrote, that isn't PGGM. That's something that the airline credit is actually intended for...

I think that it is (something that is eligible for the credit), but wanted to make sure.
