Truth be told, I really just outsmarted myself. I realized going in that the T&Cs said you cannot use the airline fee credit towards the purchase of a ticket or for a gift certificate. Then I found out that I could beat the system by using the credits to obtain gc's for $50.00 or less. Well, you can, but the "work around" has its limitations!
Got no one to blame but myself!
I still don't understand...if you don't buy DL tickets, then why would an eGC of any amount help? And if the intent was to use the credit for EC or other fees, why not just use the Amex credit directly, since that's what it's intended for?
