Here's a dark pattern for you. I bought a refundable flight on American. When I got the ticket confirmation, nothing said it was refundable. I called customer service and got confirmation. Turned out... I needed to cancel the flight. 1/4 When I went to cancel, there was a big notice: You'll get flight credit for this! I canceled anyway. The next page was a big sign: flight credit will be posted to your account in 24 hours!". Below that, a small link: Apply for a refund. 2/4
