The firm is dropping it?!

Nope. Have refused it after the first year. Shrinking benefits just didn't warrant its cost for any party involved.

Imma pay for it out of pocket. Might actually do the personal play.

I was thinking the same EY4. But more opportunities for points on corporate one with flights and hotel expenses

EY2: they are, effective Nov2016. No formal communication yet but the Sharepoint site is updated with the new Frequent Traveler qualifications and benefits. Amex Plat is not one of them.

How sure are we that the Amex corporate is going away?
