New Amex statement credits

I tried to use the Langham $200 after spending $800 recently and I greedily wanted to double dip with the Amex FHR pay 2 for 3 rate. Annoyingly the FHR rate was charged direct by Amex Travel not on checkout at Langham like it used to in the past. Is this a permanent feature of FHR when there is some additional offer now?

When booking on Amex Travel/FHR its pretty clear whether it's pay now or pay at the hotel. Sometimes there's an option too.

IIRC though, I think booking directly with the Langham in Melb there was also a pay 2 stay for 3 offer. Obviously you miss out on the other FHR benefits.

Yeah agreed, on this occasion there was no “Pay at hotel” option (I went back to try again).

Thanks for the heads up on the Langham direct offer!
