AMEX airline credit expiring in a few weeks. Been on a local project for a year so haven't been able to credit another flight. Any way to use this for personal travel and be within policy?

Answer is no, but I think you should use the credit for personal anyways and just not tell anyone, it's just a waste. Official policy is no however

@EY1 that's what I figured. But how can you get around booking a flight in the travel portal without an engagement code? That's the one thing that worries me

Amex will apply the credit towards someone else's flight soon. They won't ask it will just be gone. I was saving credit i had for internal use but waited too long

OP, Where do you see the Amex airline credit? Are you talking about credit for unused/cancelled tickets or something else?

Can you AWT and apply it to that?

Good luck with the audit when you get one

Can't you just book it and not expense it? That way it won't go through audit?

Is there training you can go to and use or for that?

@EY6 No you can't, it shows up....trust me and it's not about the expense, but more that it would "violate the personal travel policy"

Ey5, how many people have you actually heard be audited

@EY5 this year alone 6

Sounds like you have friends who abuse the system, I've been with the firm two years, and I don't know anyone who has been

@EY1 It's a cycle. To clarify 5 of them I'm not close to and I can only vouch for one
