A few credit statement offers for Delta Air Lines are floating around out there — but they appear highly targeted.
(Terms apply to American Express benefits and offers. Enrollment may be required for select American Express benefits and offers. Visit americanexpress.com to learn more.)
Delta Amex Offers
René was targeted for this Delta American Express Offer on his Delta SkyMiles® Platinum Business American Express Card: earn a one-time $100 statement credit by using my enrolled eligible card to spend a minimum of $500 on one or more purchases directly with Delta Air Lines by December 31, 2024. Eligible flights must originate in the U.S. (including U.S. territories) and purchases must be made in U.S. dollars. (Terms apply and manual enrollment is required.)
This Reddit thread lists a few other offers. The most notable promotion offers $250 in statement credit for a $1,000 purchase.
None of my wife’s or my cards were targeted.

I saw the same offer, $75 credit, last night on my Amex Delta Reserve card. I grabbed it up. It was not offered on my Amex Platinum card. I checked before adding the offer on my Reserve card.
On my Delta Platinum: $75 back for $150 spend online.
Correction $250 spend
I was like, “Wow, Barry got lucky!”
I know, I was going to ask you to edit my post but decided not to!
Got it on my Delta Blue, which is the no-fee card. Go figure…..
Right?
I have 2 reserve cards one personal and one business. Neither has the offer.
I’m with Frankie, two Reserve cards; no offer on either.
Delta Amex Reserve, $75 credit for $250 purchase
0 for 3 – didn’t get targeted on DL Reserve Personal, AmEx Gold Personal, or DL Gold Biz. AmEx and Delta apparently are smart enough to know that I occasionally pay Delta charges on all three cards so they didn’t feel the need to incentivize me to do so.
It seems that non-DL cards aren’t targeted. But why they aren’t doling out the offer to most (or all) cards is interesting.
I had the offer on my DL Reserve and DL Gold. I accepted the offer on my DL Reserve card. My wife’s DL Platinum also had the offer so I added it there.
Nice!
I had the offer on DL Reserve and DL Platinum $75 for $250 spend. Nothing offered on my non-Delta AmEx cards.
None of our cards got it??
I got it on my Business Platinum, the $75 credit for $250 spend. I live in Mexico, so all my Delta flights originate in Cancun. In order to monetize this, could I book a $250 or more flight originating in the US, receive the credit, and then later cancel the flight and store the total value of the original booking in my Delta wallet for future travel as a Delta credit? I assume so.
I’ve heard that might work.
I’ve done something similar in the past but just keep in mind that the travel credit would only be good for 1 year from the date of the initial purchase.
I had it on my DL Biz Platinum Spend $500 get $125 stmt. credit but up to 2 times. Expires 12/31/2024
The only date restriction I can find is to purchase by 12/31/24. Have you seen a “travel must be completed by” date?
@Rob – The ticket has to be purchased by 12/31/24. Travel can be to the end of schedule. Some also book a ticket and then call and cancel and have a credit voucher issued rather than the money going back to Amex so the credit will stick.
