Yeah, I tried their online support and they mentioned that as well I didn't want to a) I wanted it to be a surprise in the past when they got on board there would be a paper in their cabin telling them to schedule restaurant / reservation at their convenience which is what I was hoping for. b) Yeah I don't want to alter their booking and make plans for them in case it conflicts with whatever they have planned. Looks like the e-gift card is closest to what I wanted she said it gave them a paper to show at service desk and then can do whatever they want with the funds.
