New Amex statement credits

Qantas getting stingier - the last few credits have been $50. I still pine for the December 2016 offer where the credit was $150 for a spend of $500 or $600 (can't remember exactly).
 
For the Hilton offer, the terms says:
"Save offer to eligible Card and spend AU$400 or more, in one or more transactions, online or in-person at participating Hilton portfolio of properties by 31/07/2019 to receive a AU$80 credit, up to 3 times."
"Offer is limited to three AU$80 credits per Card to which the offer is saved and only spend on this Card counts towards the Offer"

Does this mean they got rid of the one credit per property bit so you can get $80 x 3 credit for the one property on the same card?
 
This offer is also on my velocity platinum card this morning:
Get 5 to 30% off selected fares at Virgin Australia
Eligible American Express Velocity Card Members get 5%-30% off selected Virgin Australia fares when booking via virginaustralia.com/amexoffer using promo code AMX19 by 31/03/19, for travel to 12/02/2020. A 21 day advance purchase period and T&Cs apply.
 
Like others who have already posted these offers, these are the two I love.

DSC with a discount and Hilton stays in Suites for the price of a standard. Now to cancel a couple of Hilton stays and re-book

I’ve registered for Marriott and Expedia just in case

Well the Amex T&C's are below:

  • Not valid for round-the-world flights, flights paid for via Qantas ticket offices or airport locations, and flights paid for via third parties such as travel agents, online aggregators or payment processors.
  • Please note that Card payment fees apply to purchases of eligible flights made at qantas.com using a credit/charge Card.
  • Offer is limited to one credit per Card to which the offer is saved and only spend on this Card counts towards the Offer.
  • Excludes transactions where you do not spend directly with your Card to which the offer is saved, at Qantas at qantas.com. Offer valid at Australian website only.
  • Credit is not redeemable for cash or other payment form.
  • Credit should appear on your billing statement within 5 business days from qualifying spend but may take up to 90 days from the offer end date.

Make sure you review the full T&C's as well.

To my reading, it doesn't look like it excludes gift vouchers. Spend $300 x 5 buying GV's and get 5 x $40 back. Must use different Amex cards to buy each GV (as only one credit per card noted in T&C's above).
 
Hilton offer just in time for my HK stay later this week.

Seems like offers are getting more and more stingy but better than nothing I guess. Bonvoy, Hilton and Qantas will be easy to use for those who travel.

Easy? Qantas is relatively easy to use. But spending $200+/night on a hotel is not for everyone.

I need Portugal too :(

In case you have future plans to visit any of the countries on the list after the deal is over it may be good idea to pre-pay to secure the discount. I’ve done that on the previous deal and it worked well.

There are hotels in the Hilton chain that cost < $200 in some of the countries on the list.

I was more referring to Marriott/Bonvoy.

Hilton is also getting up there and the exchange rate is killing us. Hilton Pattaya is >$300/night next month.
