Amex Travel is usually viewed as a third party travel agent so no hotel programme points or nights and almost always no status benefitsAs a Hilton Honor Gold, do I still enjoy the perks if the bookings for their Australia's properties are made via AMEX Travel?
Any one booked Shangri-La hotels and enjoy the perks with their valid Shangri-La Jade via AMEX Travel?
The exception is Fine Hotels & Resorts bookings via Amex which do allow full hotel programme benefits. Not 100% sure if Hotel Collection is similar
found the same room pricing a lot cheaper booking direct than using FHR
