AMEX removes Airpoints (temporarily?)

[WilsonM]

Wanted to confirm that my Explorer card (which nominally earns Gateway points) could transfer to VS. So I logged on, and confirmed that indeed I can - but then noticed that Airpoints wasn't even listed as a transfer option? It's still listed as a partner on the website and all, but when you literally go to transfer it doesn't appear.

Don't personally care as I'm probably not going to utilise that partnership anytime soon, but still, a bit odd.

What did Amex say when you asked them?
