Considering offers from BCG Platinion and Salesforce right now. Still trying to get a grip on community and culture of both places. You find some pretty bad reviews for Platinion online but I always wonder whether the people who are content actually go out of their way to write reviews... Anyone with experience at either?

They will just show up. There's a lot of deeper issues here haha.
I'm just trying to say look thats a bs argument and your full of it - no. Then hopefully they book the trip to visit my other sibling and I'm done with it for another year. If it's not obviously I'm back at square zero where saying no I don't want to see you only buys me a month maybe before the conversation cycle restarts.

I think for those vouchers you have to use them for the actual airline.
The bottom line though is that you don’t want this person to visit you. Tell them they are more than welcome to book the flight but they will need to make other accommodations. You don’t have to host guests you don’t want. It’s as simple as that.

I pushed after looking at the website and they said well it doesn't fly direct to Chicago. American Airlines does and is listed on the Alaska website. So my question is this - can they book an AA flight on the Alaska site with their Alaska credit?
Yeah maybe it's petty but look - I said no to the visit but they're adamant they need to use the voucher. They refuse to check it so I'm asking here if anyone knows.
It is on the site.
Ok, so starting with totally not the point... I'm guessing they can use the voucher to Chicago because partner airlines usually have code sharing, so there is prob an Alaska flight number on that AA flight to Chicago. But not the point. You don't need to offer hospitality to anyone family or not. They don't need your permission to come to Seattle. I guess you blew the chance to say, oh man, I'm going to be away in New Jersey while they are fumigating my place for murder hornets. That should cover a lot of bases. Have your other family member join you too as a buffer. Lastly given omicron, Alaska may extend their voucher.
someone needs a refresher on the principal of a sunk cost. they can choose to use a voucher or not.. up to them.. they should't however try to use their voucher as a way to manipulate you into accepting a visit from you. Just be honest about what you are comfortable with. if you are comfortable with dinner or an afternoon visit- tell them that is what you can accomodate at this point. not an overnight stay etc. be honest with what you are comfortable accomodating. they should respect your wishes and if they can't do that, then you have even more reason to set firm boundaries.
Those vouchers are typically 1 year. So they couldn’t use it in the past 12 months? Also, they can book their flight for 6 months out. There isn’t anything requiring them to book the flight today and must be on the flight in the next day or even in the next month. Most airlines don’t have available schedules much further than 6 months though.
So even if you tell them no today, they can do it 3 months from now and you will need to find an excuse then. The point is this. You just need to tell them they are more than welcome to come to Chicago, however, you are unavailable to meet up with them, they can’t come to your place/not welcome as you are unavailable, and you’ll look forward to seeing them at some point in the future when you have availability. Provide a hotel recommendation or two as well. Also, you could recommend they use the voucher to go to a place they’ve never been or to visit other family members. If they keep contacting you, ignore it after saying your peace. They need to respect your boundaries.
