Flexperks Real-Time Rewards Confirmed Merchants:
Flexperks listed examples: "United, American, British Airways, Emirates, JetBlue, Southwest, Delta, Sun Country", however BEWARE that "non U.S. merchants" are not supposed to work (i.e. British Airway & Emirates). Supervisor has said that this list hasn't been updated to exclude non-US airlines. Note that it will be difficult to get any transactions covered if Real-time Rewards do not work automatically.

Can anyone clarify how the gogo passes work (i.e. when the clock resets)? Is it once per calendar year, or is the clock reset on the anniversary that you last received your passes?
For example, if I got my passes on July 1, 2016, am I eligible for 12 more passes January 1, 2017 (calendar year), or July 1, 2017 (anniversary year)?

The other key thing is that they expire 12 months after you've added them to your Gogo account. So it's best to wait to activate that benefit until you're actually about to travel and intend to use a pass. Some people have excitedly jumped on the deal only to realize they ultimately weren't able to use all passes before expiration.

fortunately I only "lost" a week or two by doing so.Another thing perhaps worth pointing out is that these are one-flight passes. Prior to these passes I typically bought the all-day pass. Luckily my itinerary the first time I used one of the FlexPerks passes was a long flight followed by a short one and not the other way around...

Hi folks -
I currently have the Flexperks Visa Signature card; I received in the mail an offer for the Amex Flexperks card, with (only) a 10k points bonus after $100 in spend, but the added benefit was that the annual fee would be credited back as long as I had another USBank product (which I do - other FP card).
Looking at the public offer, there is no mention of the annual fee credit, but it does have the much richer 30k point offer (with only another $1000 in spend) - wondering if anyone here has seen an offer that combined the 30k points with the annual fee credit? And, hopefully, a public one. Thanks!

Has anyone booked a multicity ticket with flexperks? I need 3 segments in a triangle basically. MEM-CUN-MCO-MEM. Individually and added up, they total <$400. Can't book them this way online via Southwest (only as individual segments). I'd like to use flexperks. The other issue is that I need 5 tix total but only have 80k points, so will need to purchase the 5th ticket or use SW points for it. Can agent book a paid ticket along with the reward tickets, if needed?
Any advice on best way to proceed is appreciated.

The only reason I doubt you'd be successful is that Southwest doesn't sell their tickets anywhere except SWA's own website. You'd need the ticket price to actually be bookable on a place like Orbitz, Expedia, etc.
If I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me!

charitable giving 3x points
In the past I've had some donations not earn 3x points when I gave directly to the charity. I remember something about a portal that I can go through to ensure that I receive 3x, but I can't find anything about it on the USBank website.
Is this still a thing? Can someone provide a link if you have it handy?
Thanks!

Yes I've booked several Multi-City tickets using Flex Perks awards. For example, ARN-AMS-MSP, stop, MSP-ATL-EZE, stop, EZE-ATL-MSP, stop, MSP-AMS. All Delta flight numbers. Did research ahead of time. Priced out at $990 all in, on Google Flights and also Orbitz.
