Hi -
I am looking at getting the AMEX Platinum Card and like the free companion international travel. The problem is that I will be booking one way legs. Will PTS still do a buy one get one free on business one way bookings?
If so, what is the price difference usually between paying 2 one way business class fares vs. paying 1 full fare one way business class fare?
Is there any way I can speak to PTS to hear actual prices before deciding if a AMEX plat is worth it?
Thanks a lot!!
What airline are you interested in? I can get the details for you.....

Just to bring closure to the thread, the OP wanted CX.... which does not allow one ways
