No. American Express always excluded gift cards by rule, and practice is now aligned with policy - they are not reimbursed for
any airline. The workaround is to use a giftcard to pay a portion of the cost of a ticket, and then pay the balance with the Platinum card. The system may mistake that transaction for a fee and reimburse. The specifics vary by airline, read the appropriate thread.
