free second piece of luggage with delta american express
« on: November 24, 2011, 08:44:10 PM »
i will be traveling to Israel in December with Delta Airlines. I want to know if I will get a free second piece of luggage if i get the american express delta card. also, do you have to pay for the ticket using the card, or is it enough to present the credit card by check in? Thanks.

No, you only get your first bag free.

Well, on a side note, several lawmakers are now trying to pass a law prohibiting airlines from charging for a first checked bag, so you never know. (Not that the law will ever pass or anything...)

Don't waste an app just to safe on bag fees for one flight. Get an Amex Platinum and you'll get $200 which you can use toward bag fees. You'll also get 50k MR, which are worth at least $600/700.

and most important, feel free to make use of the points once you get them and than downgrade the card for a refund of the annual fee.

let me guess you were flying between NYC and TLV with a ticket booked before Nov 1st.
