Can I use travel funds for EBCI?

The cost of my flight went down, so I changed the flight and now have travel funds.  May I use those funds to purchase Early Bird Check In?

 

I did a search and could not find the answer.  Thank you.

Hi 

 

No!

 

How much does EarlyBird Check-In cost?

 

EarlyBird Check-In can be purchased for $15 one-way (origin to destination). A credit card must be used for the purchase of EarlyBird Check-In.

I’m wondering the same thing what can I use my $29 credit for? Early bird registration or inflight purchases?

Travel Funds can only be used towards future travel -- airfare and taxes/fees -- and only for the original passenger(s).

 

LUV Vouchers can only be used towards future travel -- airfare portion only, not any taxes or fees -- but may be used by anyone. 

 

EarlyBird Check-In and in-flight purchases can only be paid for with a credit card. (Or drink coupons for alcoholic drinks.)
