Amex gold 2021 airline credit not available to new applicants after today should I apply?

Hello so basically i opened CFU on November 13,2020 and was gonna apply for Amex gold exactly 6 months later so May 2021, but I just heard if you apply after today you won’t get the airline credit for 2021. So should I take the chance and app today or stick to my plan and apply in May?

Do you think you will actually use the airline credit? I see complaints about how difficult it is to use now that most of the loop holes has been closed.
