Amex has a horrible calculation system for when asking how much spent towards SUB.
Yup. IME they just used a calculator and added up the charges on the spot.

On DW's card, I've gotten random GCs (usually close to worthless) over the years. Never on mine. Similar spend.

How does Amex handle the 35% MR back on business class on mixed fare?

If we fly economy to NYC-BOS and business BOS-TLV will we get credit?

There's no option for a no AF card that you can downgrade to. I believe you can downgrade to the Biz Gold ($375) or Biz Green ($95).
