The website doesn't say anything about having an AMEX card at all, as far as I have seen. The signup page lets you use other cards to pay, and there is nothing on the signup page asking for your AMEX number

Ah, but one pages says
"*Please use your American Express Card when paying for these guest passes."

10 . Which credit cards can I use to make purchases?
American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover are all accepted for any purchase you make as a SkyGuide Executive Privilege Club member.
(I have requested an response on this)
"We prefer you use your AMEX card but you can use any card and we will reimburse you. Thanks."
