Free Dining with American Express Membership Rewards: Perks for Business Travelers
Tuesday February 13, 2007
So there's no such thing as a free meal, right? When you're traveling for business, maybe your company lets you expense most of your meals. However, some companies have a strict per diem for meals while traveling, and you may need to use some of your own cash to nosh at times. Business travelers who use American Express for their travel expenses can quickly earn lots of points. Besides free hotels and free flights, Amex also lets you use your points toward restaurants as well. That's food for thought on your next trip.

That can definitely come in handy on a business trip, especially if you take many business trips and the points build up. Thanks!
We have been using this program for years and it is really good. I definitely recommend it for frequent business travelers.
I had no idea you could use points for dining out. What have I been wasting them on?!?
Very useful to know and a good way to put some of those points to good use.
