Tzifanya is saying book yourself a $200 airline credit basically by requesting a voucher instead of a CC refund.
Want to lock in the $200 credit with SW for a minor. It's asking me for confirmation # of accompanying adult, which I don't have yet. I think I remember Dan mentioning somewhere that it doesn't matter what ages you give to kids since they don't check. Is this right?

Every time you call from now until you cancel your card you will be transferred to the fraud department even after they've removed the block. At least that was/is my experience. I'll be sure to cite that as my sole reason for cancelling the card when the time comes :)

Why not buy a southwest ticket and then cancel the ticket funds are available to use as credit for a year. JetBlue too for that matter....
This worked like a charm - thanks for the suggestion!
