So if I go ahead and book a one way outbound with the Amex, can I call and amend this to a return in the event mileage opens up for my inbound?
Thanks!
Yes, you can call and add the return flight to the original booking, or you can book the return flight on-line and then call later to “merge” the two bookings to apply the voucher to the subsequent booking.
