NEW YORK—American Express is adding trip cancellation and interruption insurance and trip delay insurance to the Amex Platinum card.
The perk is also being extended to a handful of other premium Amex cards, including the Business Platinum Card from American Express, the Hilton Honors Aspire Card from American Express, and the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express Card, Business Insider reported.
“If you book a round-trip flight entirely with an eligible Amex card and your flight is canceled for a covered reason, you'll be eligible for up to $10,000 in reimbursement for non-refundable travel expenses. And if your flight is delayed by more than six hours for a covered reason, you'll be eligible for up to $500 in reimbursement for unexpected expenses like meals and a hotel room,” Business Insider said.
