Does AMEX match prices for airline tickets? One of the reasons I’m on the edge and can’t make the jump to Plat from Venture X, is because Venture X will give you travel credit if you find a website with cheaper flights than their portal. Sometimes I get lucky and sketchy websites have cheap tickets I can price match with Lol

No they don’t.

Is it generally material? How often are you getting price matched.

Amex customer service is unmatched. It is a great intangible to have in your pocket.

Also - you need to ensure the high AF is worth it for you. How much value can you get out of the card to recoup the $695 fee? Venture X is easy as there is the travel credit(albeit need to book through portal) and after the first year the points on renewal make the card essentially free.
