How restrictive is it with fares/dates? For example, the US version only works on trips that originate in the US or Canada. Is the IAP offered by the UK Plat available for all ex-EU cities? If you've used it before, what's the discount, roughly speaking - I would assume something like 10-15% but it'd be helpful if there are data points.

I called Amex UK to enquire about what the programme meant, when booking an ex-ARN trip on EY; they told me it was valid only on ex-UK departures. The occasional discounts, however, are valid on (seemingly) anything – I took £200 off a £1985 CPH-DOH-SYD rt in J just the other week, with a "£200 off £600+ spend" offer on my platinum card.
