Quick thoughts
It’s a shame that this is limited to departures from the US but this is still a pretty good offer to be targeted for.
$1,200 isn’t much to spend on air travel (if you’re a family or booking a premium cabin) and when you add in the fact that the spending requirement doesn’t have to be met in a single transaction and that you only have to book and pay (not fly) by 9 December 2024, this becomes an offer that should be relatively easy to use.
As we’re seeing this offer on every Amex card that we hold (business and consumer), this is clearly not an offer that’s being narrowly targeted, and as this includes the Platinum Card® from American Express, a lot of readers should be able to pair the $200 saving with the 5 points/dollar that The Platinum Card® from American Express offers on up to $500,000 of spending made directly with airlines or flights booked through Amex Travel (1 point/dollar thereafter – terms apply).
That would be a haul of at least 6,000 points which we value at $90.
Bottom line
American Express is now targeting select cardholders for a saving of $200 off select bookings made with Turkish Airlines. Make sure you read the terms and conditions of the offer carefully before you book (not all spending with the airlines will qualify to trigger the credit) and make sure you book using the US version the Turkish Airlines website.
