People who have the Amex platinum - how did you use the airfare credit? Preferred airline is UA and I don’t want to lose the credit at the end of December. No other trips planned until next year.

How did you get this airfare credit? Cancellation of trip or points?

The airline credit is one of the perks of the card...you just can’t use it on airfare. My initial post should’ve said airline, not airfare so that’s my bad.

Buy miles? Not sure if that’s been tested and codes as incidental but I would imagine it would

I used it for extra baggage fees (jet airways, Hawaiian, Lufthansa) onboard food, cancellation fees, and in some cases pay for seating (JetBlue). I don't use it on united (preferred airline) where I have the benefits--use it when I fly other airlines and get no benefits & perks.

I believe you can use it towards a club pass
