I’ve charged an airplane tickets in Greece to my AMEX Blue, and reciept shows it was 2 months ago (28 July). But this charge is still not posted on the account.
Isn’t that strange, and do I have to call British Airways or travel agency about it

Jeff,

There may be some delays in charging your account, chances are it will be charged. However, if not, maybe you should not mention it, and maybe you’ll get away with a free airlne ticket.

Also, various American Express Charge Cards have a special section that show travel related expenses on the statement (it’s called Sign and Travel), which sometimes can be overlooked, not sure if Blue has such a feature, since it is not a charge card.

Sincerely,
