My flight was canceled due to weather, amex travel insurance just denied my claim saying my flight was cancelled  due to mechanical issues which is not covered .Is there a website where I can look up the reason for cancellation? It was a flight on the 17th of July out of Chicago and all airlines cancelled their flights to new york that night  due to weather. I called the airline  spirit and they said they dont have the reason for the cancellation. Tia
flight aware

I looked on flight aware and they dont say the reason for the cancellation all they say was that the flight was cancelled. I need to show the amex insurance company that the flight was cancelled due to weather.

I'm not sure what they gained by this but whatever works for them.

Effective 11/8/2024, an Amex Card must be selected as the payment method for your transaction to redeem the Amex Uber Cash benefit.

Understood.  An average UE order is over $15. So I'm bound to be using my cc saved in account.  Wonder if using GCs will not allow for me to use the platinum Uber credit.

Same. And I've mistakenly had my Sapphire selected as the backup with no issue.

IMO as long as they award this as Uber Cash there's really no way for them to block you from using it regardless of what the back up cc is.

This guy says he’s offering $1k and covering the annual fee with no spending required, all you need to do is to apply.

Sounds fishy. What am I missing?

your not missing anything he'll make $300+ off the referral, the Early spend gives $2500+ -$695 for annual fee -$1000 for you and he'll make at least $1100 doing what he enjoys. Just it's not too cool to trust any random guy with your credit like that

Thanks

What is the “early spend” and how does it give 2500?
