...and another thing, which may affect the 10 points per dollar

Was tempted to try this one as I need to book a flight to New Zealand but seems like AMEX has got some tight T&C's around this one! Awesome offer though, very appealing, would definitely make me book a flight!

I received it too. I had a very close look at it as an NZ GE.

However, it is VERY restrictive on how it can be used and I could not find a way to fit it in with my travel plans.
