Amex points and flight gift vouchers

[sonny]

Morning all,
I’m hoping to buy some gift vouchers for flights to SYD for a family member.

Does anyone know of a good place to buy gift vouchers for flights, a bonus if I can earn Amex points on them too.

Flight voucher companies all seem a little untrustworthy.. shame BA doesn’t sell them 🙁

Thanks!

Why make things more complicated by involving gift vouchers?

Just pay for the flights using your Amex aCIO’s earning credit card!

As above, you could even make a “voucher” or gift card yourself with a message saying that’s what you’re gifting them (very generous, btw!), and present it to them if you want it to feel like more of an occasion.

Agree with both replies, gift vouchers will have terms and conditions that may make them more complicated. They also usually come with fixed expiry dates. Just make your own and pay that amount when they are ready to book.

Okay, good points! Thanks for the advice all 🙂
