I think deloitte 1 is saying that if you book on amextravel it’s generally a no. However if you do book a luxury hotels and resorts through amex travel, you would still get the points as those rules are different. Rule of thumb is: if amex trave says due now and you have to pay, you won’t get the points. If it’s a luxury hotel and resorts property and the total says “due at hotel” or something along those lines, you will get those points. Works at ritz carlton

Normally no

? Please add more context

So there is a travel portal from American Express where you can book travels. I know travels booked through Expedia etc. don’t normally earn your hotel points. So wondering about amextravel.

No, not for hotels

No. But you get bonus Amex Points

Thanks DC1 for the thorough explanation!
