Getting Amex Plat today and maximizing 2022 benefits?

Is it feasible to get a personal or business platinum card now or tomorrow morning, get a virtual card number and actually trigger all the credits tomorrow?

Probably Not

I don’t think so. Even if you already had the card and made all the qualifying charges today I wouldn't expect the charges to post to the account until next year at this point and therefore trigger the credits in January.

so, it’s possible but I don’t think so

Possibly e-gift card purchase for Saks? Maybe even physical purchase if you have the card number in your wallet? Also, maybe airline purchase if you were to do lets say AA club passes? It is the transaction date on most of those items that matters right?
