Amex 2-4-1 expires end of Aug 11, want to book for Aug 12
Hello. I've been lurking on here for ages and taking advantage of the sage-like advice the threads contain. I have finally managed to build up 117k miles and an Amex voucher. I used BA Amex, Amex Gold and a bit of Tesco - it took me 18 months. I'm now itching to book a Club return to the west coast of the USA. I've learned that this is a 'good use of miles' as it's a decent length of journey. Anyway - thanks all for the great info on here but I think I've slipped up.
I want to go LHR-SFO and return LAS-LHR. I know that these tickets are difficult to get so I plan to go early Aug 2012 and book soon. Problem is my 2-4-1 expires 31/08/11. As far as I can work out, flights for Aug 2012 won't be released until a day after my voucher expires. Have I made a clanger of a newbie error?
