Amex Platinum Charge Cards - travel specials - The Australian Frequent Flyer Online Community

Sometime back, I recall offers by AMEX of 2-4-1 tickets.

Do they still offer such? Are they good value?

Would like to travel to Europe in October and NY in November.

They don't offer "2-for-1" type tickets any more, but do offer discounts on certain tickets from some airlines:

Note that often the discounts aren't that great compared to buying a discounted ticket elsewhere - so do price shopping before committing.

It was one of the key reasons for me to get that card, but the offers aren't great and I ended up getting a better deal on the general market.
