Just got my first PP statement
Here's a few of the highlights for those interested. FYI, mine is the regular level Amex, not Elite (since there is no Elite Amex).
1) The bonus points count as purchase points and pair with flight points. I was surprised to see the flight points transfer since I haven't taken any of the trips yet- I thought they were supposed to post after the travel dates.
2) Award tickets appear to have earned flight points- and more interesting is that award tickets that I cancelled the next day also seem to have earned them- use your imagination here. We'll see if any adjustment is made next month.
3) I had one or two small purchases from TY shopping that did not post, but someone said maybe I should actually expect to see those on my other Citi card since it was my first/primary one. Makes me wonder if you can switch your primary card.
4) A Question- does anyone know what reference Citi uses to calculate the miles flown (and thus the flight points)? I tried to reconcile my earned fight points with the flights I booked and there was a difference.
