does the amex gold card earn 3 points per dollar on airfare purchased through orbitz, etc.. or must the ticket be purchased directly from the airline?

@Dani:
Still works for posted dates.
@yitz:
Yes, you will earn the 3 points from Orbitz as Orbitz dosn’t actually charge you, they just pass it onto their airline but they provide you with more time to cancel than the airline directly would.
