If you are a cardmember of either The Platinum Card® from American Express or The Business Platinum® Card from American Express one of the many benefits of the cards is that you receive a $200 annual airline fee credit. Today (1/31/17) is the last day to change your chosen airline, otherwise it defaults to the airline that you had chosen last year. So, if you are needing to make a change be sure to do so today! The qualifying airline Business Platinum Card Members select for this $200 benefit and the 50% Airline Bonus must be the same.
