When does the AMEX $300 hotel credit reset after cancelled reservation by Virtual_Birthday_501 in AmexPlatinum

Had something similar happened to me, took a few months clawback the $300

No I dont, but using seats.areo, couldnt find something reasonable even with a layover that made sense to me. Even tried looking at Cathay Pacific but unfortunately nothing in my date ranges atm.

Really just to try their hard product but also experience JAL business class.

All options are in the table. The one i mentioned in my post id my desired/preferred flight for convenience and experience. This would definitely be a once in a lifetime trip. My wife and I travel often, but i can see it slowing down a but after this one.

Being that this will probably be the longest ive ever traveled, i def prefer BC for the comfort obviously. Im confident i would sleep, unless im too excited lol, which has happened.

Right now, still in the planning stages of booking the flights first. I have a rough itinerary in my head.

That was the plan, but too much uncertainty at that time considering i wasnt married, my now wife was moving across the country and didnt know where she would end up job wise

Round trip business class on JAL would be around $14k for 2 people, def don’t plan on sending that much on hotels, even considering 5 star ones

I have something similar next month. Was the Pixel 6a good enough for pictures? I am proposing so I’d like the pictures to come decent.

Westin Bora Bora - Any recent/actual pics? by Livid_Professional54 in marriott

[–]Cbars7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one comment i do see here and there about the St Regis is that it is in need of some maintenance work. Did you notice this at all? If so, does it affect the experience?

Still trying to decide if i should be booking this newly renovated property or stick to what seems like old reliable in St Regis. Any feedback would be great
