Good morning everyone. A few weeks ago, I redeemed my Citi Thank You Points for an American Airlines flight that was a code share with Alaska Airlines. By booking the American Airlines code share flight instead of the Alaska Airlines flight, I was able to get 1.6 cents per point (CPP) for my Citi Thank You Point redemption. This redemption value is only going to be around until July 27, 2017, then all flights booked with Citi Thank You Points will only get 1.25 CPP in value. At the time, I was very pleased with the redemption value, but then a few weeks later, my travel plans changed and I no longer needed that flight.
Luckily, a schedule change occurred and I was able to cancel my airline reservation for free and get my Citi Thank You Points redeposited into my account. In this post, I will explain the process of cancelling an airline reservation and getting your Citi Thank You Points redeposited.
