I’ve had to use AMEX travel several times to book flights for business reasons, and it’s always substantially more expensive than I could get if I booked it myself. Even with 25% off I’m still not certain it’s a good deal.

Edit: just realized you were referring to booking with points. In that case it gets a little more hazy, who knows what the value is really worth there. But I definitely have a negative opinion of Amex travel and will avoid them if possible, at this point I just assume they’re giving me a bad deal

Does that apply on the corporate version, here? https://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/business/cor...

I'm not super clear on the difference between business cards and corporate cards.

Biz cards are personally guaranteed and corp cards are not.

So a corp can get either type depending how they want the guarantee can go? Like, a regular biz card can work for corp expenses?

> Then, 25% off(!) flights booked with points

Just looked it up. Same flight, same time.

Google Flights: $309 AmExTravel: $386

25% off isn't so great when the competitor is already 20% lower.

The major difference between Brex/Stripe card and typical business cards on the market whether or not there's a personal guarantee.
