Many of us got pretty excited about a new Amex Offer today for $150 off $600 on Delta.
I was even more excited to actually have it on my Delta SkyMiles® Reserve Business American Express Credit Card where I’d even get 3X miles on the purchase.
But as I read the fine print (how many of us actually read all of the Terms and Conditions each time? Well, we should 😉 ), I found that I’d have to depart JFK or BOS and arrive at LHR, CDG, or DUB to qualify!
That is pretty specific.
Remembering that this was posted in the Facebook group, I went to warn people of the limitations when I saw that Tim R. has a completely different set of terms!
So he has to depart LAX or SEA and can only go to HNL, OGG, LIH or KOA (all in Hawaii).
This is the first time I can recall an airfare offer in Amex Offers requiring specific departure and destination airports. I think usually it simply has to depart from the US.
What other offers are you all seeing? Please post in the comments!
