I have to book travel through Concur for work, but can use my own card. Does a code as 5x for AMEX platinum or should I use my Chase sapphire preferred for 2x.

Booking through GDS via a travel agency got me 3x on Amex Gold as the charges are technically initiated by the airline.

I get 5x on GetThere so I believe you'll get 5x on Amex Plat through Concur. OTA like Expedia, Trip.com, etc will NOT get you 5x

helpful

Unless it's directly through the airline or amex portal the 5x won't hit

Thank you. I searched on Reddit and it does charge as if we’re booking directly from the airline. This applies to Egencia as well for those employees that require that.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid?

I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
