Quick Thoughts
Getting $250 back on a $1,250 purchase is a decent return, especially seeing as it’s valid on more than one purchase. That’s handy because if you’re booking for more than one person, each person’s flight sometimes gets charged for separately.
If you’ll be booking paid flights, click through from a shopping portal to earn a little extra cashback; here are the current rates.
In addition to this Amex Offer being good for regular airfare, it should also work when spending $1,250 or more on taxes and fees when booking with Aer Lingus Avios.





Do they claw back the 250 if you cancel the flights later on for full refund?
There’s a good likelihood that’ll happen, although I haven’t heard of any data points confirming this either way.
