Description
The travel legs departureDate field is stored as an integer while expecting a format of MMDDYY on Cybersource backend site.
This results in bad requests for departureDates starting with a month below 10, e.g.:
Date 2024-02-01 (YYYY-MM-DD) results to integer 20124 instead of 020124.
Sending the resulting departureDate to the CyS API returns a validation error saying that the field should be in MMDDYY format.
Supported format for this field is MMDDYY.: departure_date

Research direction
Start by locating the travel legs departureDate field and tracing how its value is serialized before the Cybersource API request. Reproduce the 2024-02-01 case and verify that the resulting value preserves the leading zero and is accepted in MMDDYY format; add or update coverage if the repository provides a relevant test location.
