I went to Paris last august and they had a surprising drop in temperature plus it rained several days. Grateful I thought to throw some sneakers (was planning to wear comfy sandals) a hoodie, and a light rain jacket in my bag at the last minute. I had to pop into an H&M to buy stockings to wear under my summer dress cause I was nippy!

I recently cancelled a trip in the AA app and they refunded me in the form of a flight voucher.

Some ideas I’ve come up with besides calling and asking, is to book a flight that is more then the voucher and then trying to refund all back to my card, but I don’t know if that will work....
