Irish80, so I can only get that deal for my PRG card and not my Delta Golds Card?

If you login to your account and click "Benefits" at the top it'll tell you everything you get.

I read this in the terms.  Will they still credit it even with them saying this in there terms.  See below.

Airline tickets, upgrades, mileage points purchases, mileage points transfer fees, gift cards, duty free purchases, and award tickets are not deemed to be incidental fees.

yes, but most have best luck with $50 increments. So do two $50 egift cards.

Your delta gold came with $50 credit after first delta purchase, so u are good there.

Say you want to book a flight after Jan 1, just make sure you buy two more gift cards.  Then you realize you can only apply 3 different payments.  Do not fret. Split your roundtrip into two one way segments and apply them however you want!

Take care of the airline incidental credit NOW. If you don't use it by 12/31 you'll lose it for 2015, bringing your value of the benefit from $200 to $100.

Buy some airline gift cards online ASAP ($50 increments seems to be the sweet spot) so you can ensure it's all done before the end of the year.

I did mine and my g/fs for both PRG and Platinum in $100 cards and had no problem with reimbursement
