Amex 2-4-1 voucher extension - last chance ?
Search appears to be broken but I remember reading a post (by Raffles I think ?) that the Amex 2-4-1 vouchers will not be extendible (even by 3 months as they are currently) from 1 October. If my recollection is correct, this is just a reminder to people to sort this out today/tomorrow for any existing vouchers!
I just phoned and extended my voucher which expires in July 2007 for a further 3 months.

And like adam1uk correctly states, it is to be implemented on 1st November 2006.

It's not that we want to keep them; it's the getting availability in the right class on the right route that's the thing
(using mine for two returns to CPT in Feb
)

And one flight a week means there isn't a great deal of choice about dates
