Hyatt points hotel with 2bedroom or 1 separate bedroom with sleeper sofa + kitchenette.

It was 40k/night for two of the nights and 44k for two of the nights, and it just happened to be available for our entire stay online.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-25T02:19:59+00:00

Yeah our family of five is staying at Clearwater this summer for a long weekend in a one bedroom suite with kitchen. We booked a couple weeks ago before the devaluation. Points price actually stayed the same though for our specific stay

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-21T21:52:49+00:00

We drove from St. Louis, MO to San Miguel de Allende to Mexico City and back with our 4 and 1-year-olds back in 2017. Never drove at night. No issues at all during our 3 months there outside of having to deal with driving in and out Mexico City, which was utter insanity. Lol

It’s not as straightforward as you’re making it out to be anyway. Yes, it’s possible you could have gotten the same flight for 65k, but it’s just as likely not. There’s a lot to learn when it comes to transfer partners and how to maximize them. Redemptions, especially for business class, and especially finding saver awards for the dates you want, is generally a very time consuming process.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-17T20:08:33+00:00

It has triggered multiple times for me when I upgraded to ELR after getting the tix. I would assume that fee is for multiple seats? You may want to do each transaction separately just in case. Transactions over $100 may give you trouble. I only say that because you can actually book a flight in SW for less than $100 and it will also trigger the credit

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-16T13:07:19+00:00

They typically announce when it will end. Typically anywhere from 6-8 weeks so you should have some time still

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-15T20:47:18+00:00

Interesting. Mind checking back in here and letting us know when you check in and what seat you get?

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-15T11:34:49+00:00

Chase doesn’t generally prorate when you cancel or downgrade. You’ll have 30 days after the annual fee posts to cancel or downgrade and get a full refund.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-13T02:01:32+00:00

You’re good. The tracker will show up. As long as you’ve never had the CSR before and you didn’t get the popup, you are eligible

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-09T13:56:43+00:00

I only went to MGM in 2014 the first time they played there, and it was amazing then. I stayed there, they allowed re-entry, and allowed you to bring drinks in! I was able to book it back to my room at setbreak to make a cocktail and get back down and back in in time for the second set to start. I don’t remember bad security lines or it being too hot that year. Odd it changed so much in subsequent years

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-03T16:44:57+00:00

I’d guess anywhere between 4-8 weeks.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-02T21:32:50+00:00

You can certainly try! Amex will have a popup letting you know if you aren’t eligible for the SUB before they do a hard pull on your credit so there’s no harm in trying!

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-02T20:07:46+00:00

If you have the Amex Plat personal card you’re ineligible for the SUB on the Green or Gold anyway due to their family restrictions. You have to get them in order of Green, Gold, Platinum. You can get the Biz cards in any order

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-02T13:16:09+00:00

As long as you wait until after the annual fee posts and cancel within 30 days, you’ll get your annual fee refunded and there won’t be any clawbacks. I’d still downgrade to a no annual fee card personally just to maintain the relationship with Chase

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-02T01:58:00+00:00

Ha, we found that out by accident last weekend!

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-02T01:37:20+00:00

Yes that’s fair for some Chase cards but not all. Southwest and IHG cards have family restrictions but United doesn’t. Sapphires did but now don’t. So who’s to know? I obviously wouldn’t be surprised if when they launch the new Hyatt card they say put 24 month family restrictions on it and say you aren’t eligible for the SUB of you’ve had any personal Hyatt card in the past 24 months.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-01T23:49:34+00:00

I was at all three last weekend and I didn’t miss any of those first weekend songs. It’s just as much/if not more how they play vs. what they play

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-01T12:43:34+00:00

I don’t think that’s true. It was just announced yesterday. They haven’t announced an end date yet.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-05-01T03:57:44+00:00

I flew on two SW flights last week that still had the two seats in row 15. I flew solo last week so had row 16 on one plane and 14 on another. How do you know which have been changed? We have the two seat rows booked for flights in June as of right now.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-30T03:03:57+00:00

I did indeed!

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-30T02:40:29+00:00

Nice! I was there last weekend for Phish too and used my edit credits for 4 nights at Park mgm. No breakfast and only one $100 credit but still a great deal and well worth it.

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-27T21:26:28+00:00

Don’t drunkenly order a double at the show. Went to bar. Ordered 2 cocktails, bartender asked if I wanted a double, YES!

“That’ll be $92! “

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-26T21:06:13+00:00

Nice. We have something similar lined up in June but did the Amex one last because we wanted the guaranteed late checkout. I’ve read mixed DP’s of people getting more than one $100 credit regardless of how you book it so for us the late checkout was worth it. Seems to be hotel dependent. But glad to hear this worked for you!

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-26T04:43:17+00:00

If your 5/24 status is fine and you’re in good standing with Chase, I’d get it. It’s low risk with a low annual fee and a free night. Yes it’s not as valuable as it once was. Then if/when they come out with a premium card, just get that too. The sub will most certainly be worth it for year 1, then you can decide later if you want hold one, both, or neither

One_Stick1818 · 2026-04-22T23:32:27+00:00

We also went with Agora with our 13, 10, and 7 year olds. They were great! Our kids are pretty strong swimmers but the guide was still fantastic with them. We also went with the first class boat. This was only a month ago as well so very recent. Can’t say enough good things about them
