>If you travel every week for work, I would be booking full fare (refundable), not non-basic restricted fares. Why? I don’t fly that much, especially for work, and I’ve never had a problem getting to use my credits from cancelling flights. The price difference between credit-refundable and full refundable is usually significant and doesn’t offer me anything. | ||

If the price difference is significant then sure. My experience booking 3-5 days ahead of time is there isn't much difference. In addition to no credits to keep track of, which don't seem to be your concern, - simplifies expense filing - if paying with a personal card (vs a corporate card), i'm not floating extra cash that is now converted to a credit - full fare is less likely to get bumped on overbooking - more miles / credits towards status | ||

this. And since I was traveling every week, it was even easier to know that i'd use the credit. Not worth paying extra for a cash refund. | ||
