Just another data point. I used the plat card to get exit row seats for flights to Peru and back. Received full reimbursement automatically. Had $20 left over so I tried to pick up a gift card. Was not reimbursed. Called in asked, they said gift cards were not covered, but they were willing to offer me a one time $20 credit or 1600 MR points. As other people mentioned Jet Blue codes purchases as Gift Cards so it doesn't help.

Since American Express changed the terms and condition of the airline credit, does anyone know if they will still reimburse for the Even More Legroom seat upgrade on JetBlue?

I just spent $70 on Jet Blue upgrading to more legroom seats. The charge was reimbursed to me within two days.

Thanks. |
Any news on this? Otherwise I'll give it a try in early January :)
|
As promised, I tried:
Jan 7 AMEX Airline Fee Reimbursement $-95.00 Jan 5 AMEX Airline Fee Reimbursement $-85.00 Jan 5 JETBLUE AIRWAYS 9010JETBLUE NY $95.00 Jan 2 JETBLUE AIRWAYS 9010JETBLUE NY $85.00 2 * even more space. I bought this after someone else booked the flight for me (using the "change seats" thing). |
I also upgraded one of my upcoming flights ("to test out the waters") to an Even More Space seat and got reimbursed by AMEX 2 days later:
Jan 17 JETBLUE AIRWAYS 9010JETBLUE NY $55.00 Jan19 AMEX Airline Fee Reimbursement -$55.00 |
b6 EMS fee's were reimbursed 3 days after posting on the Bus Plat account, I used a total of $220 and received a total of $200.

Question about fees
Hi,
I registered my Platinum for JetBlue and purchased a ticket today. I paid $75.54 in taxes and fees. Will AMEX reimburse a portion of this? How will they know which are seat fees? Thanks so much.... |

Airline tickets, upgrades, mileage points purchases, mileage points transfer fees, gift cards, duty free purchases, and award tickets are not deemed to be incidental fees. |

. Incidental air travel fees must be separate charges from airline ticket charges. |
Thanks!
We are going to upgrade at check in so that will be separate - I suppose that will be reimbursed. This purchase can go towards the minimum spend. |

I got $102.20 (the cost of a RT flight from Hartford to Washington DC in a big sale) reimbursed on my AMEX Platinum as well as $60 for even more space seats each way. I have no idea how in the world the flight got reimbursed, but I am not complaining!
