The one I canceled today says Oct 12th.  Are you guys just saying December because you booked in December?

The normal credit expiration for airlines is 1 year.  The fact that the are changing that to fall of 2022 says they don't think anyone will be able to fly until 2022.

But others aren't as lucky as those of us that have gotten the 2022 extension. Some are getting an extension only until June 30 2021. Or you have some questioning why aren't flights before March 7 and after Sept 7 2020 aren't getting extended.

The way I understand it, if your travel credit was expiring between March 1st and May 31st of 2020 then that credit is now extended out another year to June 30th, 2021.  These are credits for flights there were cancelled up to a year ago and were about to expire.  New credits for flights being cancelled now will expire on September 7th, 2022.

So it's not a matter of luck, it's two different extensions.  One for credits that were about to expire and another for credits being created due to new cancellations.

Yes, I know that, however, I had a flight I had changed when it was a lower price.  They had two different dates on them.  It was a legitimate question since the people I was conversing with both had December.  They answered me though and we all got on the same page!
