For the Delta Vacations packages, can you put the first $1000 on the card and then use miles to pay for the rest? And can you use a non-AmEx coupon code or discount to stack with the offer?

10/28/21 - 1x regular points per dollar appeared on my Rewards Points Summary for that purchase
10/30/21 - 5x bonus points per dollar appeared on my Rewards Points Summary for that purchase
Did you get an email saying you'd redeemed the offer?

Edit: okay I got an email. It took about an hour to show up after I did the balance reload.

Yep! A sampling:

Delta Vacations spend $1k+ get $200 up to 3x (total of $600)
Best Buy spend $250 get $25
Park N Fly spend $75 get $15
Norwegian Cruise Line: I had two flavors across multiple cards, spend $500+ get 12,500 MR and spend $500, get $125 back
Damn it! I got all of the offers that you had listed except for Delta, and another guy got Kroger, but none for me either.

Read the terms and conditions. I know it stated you can't use Delta Airlines discounts of some sort.

Based on how these things usually work, I would suspect you can, but I can't guarantee it. I don't see anything in the T&Cs that would specifically preclude it, and the fact that the T&Cs reference paying a deposit + balance suggest to me that partial payments should register. And on top of that, any discount codes you apply directly through the merchant almost never affect Amex Offer applicability.

There are usually plentiful Delta Vacations discount codes available, including those for SkyMiles members and elites and for employees of companies that have a Delta corporate contract, so I would certainly try to use one of those if I were going to use this offer.

Via email, not in Amex offers, but on my Asprire card have an offer of a free night for $8k spend by 2/28.

Was able to use the link to access something similar on my wife's Aspire (no email for her).

Here's the URL that worked for me (via logging in).

https://global.americanexpress.com/e...&om_mid=111788

I have 8 days coming up in a Walfdorf, 3 nights on points, but haven't used my resort credit yet, so that will be sweet to have it count towards the spend and get the rebate.

Agreed. Received the email, and signed up. Great for the free night anywhere.

Got the AmEx Hilton free night offer on my no annual fee card via email so it seems pretty broadly based

When it says in one or more transactions, it means as long as the total adds up to the threshold amount it would qualify for the offer, right?

I have not used multiple transactions to reach total amount type offers before so want to make sure my understanding is correct.

This what the Royal Caribbeans offer reads -

Details

Get a one-time $350 statement credit by using your enrolled Card to spend a minimum of $1,000 in one or more transactions on reservations booked at royalcaribbean.com, by phone at 1-866-562-7625 or by contacting your preferred travel advisor by 12/31/2021. See terms for exclusions.

The cruise we would book is a tad short of the $1000 threshold. I am thinking about to add prepaid gratuity to the booking. Though I think Royal charges the prepaid gratuity separately so it would be multiple transactions. Since onboard purchases do not quality, only amount(s) paid at reservation time would work, my guess is Prepaid Gratuity or Prepaid shipboard activities would be the only ways.

No email so far, but link (from DoC in my case) worked for me (login method). Estimated taxes for Q4 and Q1 would take care of the spend (though I will look at shifting some spend to the card that doesn’t come with “convenience” fees).
