They usually overnight the higher end charge cards but not the revolvers. The think my BCP took around two weeks to come. Give them a call and explain the situation and they may help you out.

I was just approved for the Platinum and my email said 2-3 days!

Other lenders provide this service. I bet if you call, AMEX can expidite the process ... for a fee

Current:
TU (5/14/14): 796 (Inquiries; 8/23/13)

EX (9/24/13): 780 (Inquiries: 7/2/12; 11/20/12; 7/30/13; 8/23/13)

Goals: No new inquiries for 2014, 800 for all CRs by 12/31/14

My platinum was overnighted free of charge since I had to travel. AMEX is really good at expedited requests. Give them a call.

+1 for giving them a call. I had Citi overnight me a Dividend card with an EMV chip in order to use it for a trip to Europe, and they were happy to oblige. Just articulate why you need it so quickly.

Any time I've needed a replacement card for some reason or another, they've sent it UPS overnight without even having to ask. However, all new approvals have been sent via US Postal Service. When I was approved for BCP in December I asked if there was any way to get the card faster and they said no. I didn't push the matter any, so your reality may vary.
