Jan 3 I did a $100 transaction in Tokyo using A+, and the rate was fine...

I will test again soon as I'm heading to Singapore. Maybe I'll find a convenience store and do two swipes.

I kind of think Amex uses almost the same rates as MC does, and I would like to know whether your experience explicitly tells differently, thanks~
