How can I make American airlines honor their travel voucher?
February 2020 I bought tickets to Barcelona from New York City which I cancelled due to the pandemic. Like everyone else I got a travel voucher which was supposed to be valid till December 2021. The original voucher was for roughly $600. I used $300 of it in a itinerary in July 2020. I got the balance back in another travel voucher. What American airlines didn't tell me in advance before I made the purchase was that the new voucher would only be valid for a year and not till Dec 2021. The validity of the $300 voucher lasted till July 2021 and apparently it was written in a small font at the end of the email that I received along with the $300 voucher. I wasn't even aware of this. Now when I try to use the voucher it says invalid. Is there any way I can get the money back that was mine in the first place ?
