These are all new to me. However when I tried to register a qualifying airline, the computer said
"None of your benefits require the selection of a qualifying airline."

There are others too, but these are the 2 of most interest to me.

5X MEMBERSHIP REWARDS® POINTS ON ELIGIBLE TRAVEL‡
Get 5X Membership Rewards® points on flights booked directly with airlines or with American Express Travel and 5X points on eligible hotels booked on amextravel.com.‡

$200 AIRLINE FEE CREDIT‡
Enjoy perks while you fly.
Feel free to check your bags or enjoy an in-flight meal on us. Select a qualifying airline and then receive up to $200 a year in statement credits when incidental fees are charged by the airline to your Platinum Card® account. American Express relies on accurate airline transaction data to identify incidental fee purchases. If you do not see a credit for a qualifying incidental purchase on your eligible Card after 4 weeks, simply call the number on the back of your Card. See terms & conditions for more details.‡

      Oh that might explain it. I ended up there by clicking on an email that they sent to me.
      Their email said:-
      "Platinum Card® Members can get 5X Membership Rewards® points on prepaid hotels booked at amextravel.com. That's in addition to earning 5X points for flights when booking directly with airlines or American Express Travel.2 LEARN MORE"

        Amex email response to me:-
        "I wish to share that the details provided in your email are for the promotion offered for the American Express Card holders in the United States of America."
        Why in the hell they would send that to me in the first place has me bewildered.
