My Amex 241 voucher expires this year before I can make much use for it. I have 2 jokers but no time to actually fly anywhere with it before it expires in June. I even booked a Tokyo in first but the taxes were more than the recent Qatar AMS-HND deal I got so I cancelled it!

I only saved 17,000 avios from this 241 voucher, LHR-LCA one way!! I was really disappointed but its better than nothing
Worth noting that the GGL team can speak to Amex and get them extended. Mine was going to expire in October and they got another 3 months added to mine.
