AMEX Card Closing Date Today -- Would Charge Made Today Appear This Month?

Hi All,

Probably a stupid question, but here goes.

My AMEX card closes today for this billing period. I pretty much just use it for large purchases. I found a good air fare that I want to book, but, for cash flow reasons, do not want it to post to AMEX this month. If I make the purchase today, would the charge appear this month? In other words, is the closing date the last day for this period or the first day of the next period? If it matters, the vendor is UK based.

Thanks!
