Technically yes, when I was there...the policy on paper said you must use your corporate Amex...however, in practice most used personal (except for rental cars)

Everybody uses their SPG card on check out haha

You're supposed to book trips through wbs. They don't like it when you book trips on Amex. There was a scam a while back when people were getting refunds after they bought their tickets. People were terminated as a result.

I would not recommend booking flights outside of the tool (and billed to a WBSe). Hotels, as mentioned, are supposed to be on the card, but many of my friends are in noncompliance for the points.

Don't book flights outside the tool with WBSe... It's a mega audit flag. Save yourself the hassle

But the booking tool allows you to use an Amex (either the corporate or any other) is this also in noncompliance ?

That's if you don't have a WBS or are booking personal travel/flex trips I believe

There could be an irrational policy against it but the booking tool allows you to use an amex for client trips. Then on MYTE you have the option of "Booked through CWT paid with Amex"

@OP Yes, it is in noncompliance.
