Thanks to all who contribute to this forum.
Amex cherry picks their exchange rates
- can't cherry pick for dirty float/pegged currencies like RMB, HKD, TWD, THB, VND
- can cherry pick for EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD
Pick your poison, really
I used to have a bank AE card that earns 3 miles per US$ overseas but that's now gone
I have Unionpay for places where accepted
