American Express Marriott Bonvoy Bevy: baggage insurance
What the American Express Marriott Bonvoy Bevy's baggage insurance covers as its issuer summarises it, which cards with dated benefits list the same thing for a lower fee, and whether the card's rewards pay its fee before the benefit is counted.
Read this first
This list comes from each issuer's benefit summary, read on the month shown beside each card. Summaries leave out the exclusions, the claim limits per year and the conditions — often that the whole trip or purchase has to go on the card — so read the card's full guide to benefits before you rely on one. 77 of the 118 cards in the catalogue have no benefits recorded here yet and are left out, so a card missing from this list may still have it.

Baggage insurance up to $1,250 for carry-on and $500 for checked bags
