CAUTION: In February 2019, American Airlines changed the coding of gift card transactions. Although there are a few successful data points since, in general, Gift Card purchases are now explicitly identified, and no longer reimbursed by American Express.
Reminder: you must enroll and select your airline BEFORE making a reimbursable purchase. http://www.americanexpress.com/airlinechoice -or- "Call the number on the back of your Card to select a qualifying airline."
Data Points on automatically reimbursed incidentals since 2017:
Admirals Club Memberships: Admirals Club Passes:
Wifi is provided by one of three third-party providers and is thus not eligible for the incidental credit.
* For items not automatically reimbursed but which are not excluded by Amex, you can try and request manual reimbursement from American Express; however, you may need to wait 14-28 days first.

Sorry everyone, but did I miss something. Today it states $ 200.00 airline fee credit. Wasn't it $ 250.00 before?
Ooops. Edit : It just changed to $ 250.00 on the Aspire. Don't know what was going on. Or is the Aspire 250.00 and the Plat 200.00?

I bought two AA $50 gc on 12/31 using my Amex PRG card.... and today I see the transactions have been posted with date 31st only but it shows 2019.01.01 also in the details.....also It shows category as travel and shows flight details.
Does it look good?
Also, In this case will I get credit or not?
If I get credit then will it be from 2018 quota or 2019 quota?
