Don’t worry Etihad Guest has not been removed from American Express Membership Rewards. Last
week when I logged into my account and went to the transfer points page
Etihad was gone. Funny thing is a few days later I get an email from one
of our readers stating the exact same thing! It appears that when logged
in there is a technical glitch that removes Etihad from the page however if you log
out and go to the transfer points page Etihad is there. I notified
American Express of this issue last week and they are working to resolve
it!
