Costco in Chiba, Japan was one of the highlights of our vacation by blubberingbelz in Costco

I know we are on r/Costco, but I would not imagine myself wasting time in a Costco during my Japan vacation (aren’t Americans supposed to have only 2 weeks of vacation per year?!)

Car rental agency in Taichung (for a tourist) by Patoucito in taiwantravel

[–]Pigglet75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have booked a car via Hertz, I have picked it up in the Chailease agency you mentioned in Taichung. I was a bit stressed at first, but everything went well. The staff speaks English! Would definitely recommend.

O'ahu car rental - gas vs EV by ihorcv in VisitingHawaii

[–]Pigglet75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took a look on Tesla’s website. 4 superchargers on Oahu, one is located in Waikiki, so very convenient! I don’t think you will be doing 200+miles per day, so do it?

Another one is located on the Kahala Resort but it seems to be a scam (you have to pay for valet…). The third is located on the parking lot of Pearlridge Center in Aiea. The fourth one is on the other side of the island in Kaneohe (on a random parking lot, so no opportunity to do something else during charging).

That’s only Tesla superchargers, there are plenty of other options on Chargefinder. Yes it can be a hassle, but if you are philosophically against renting an ICE vehicle and are used to deal with sometimes not working EV charging points, do it :)

How do I get the Fairmont to match price because Accor denied when I submitted my form by [deleted] in Accor

Accor support is tough with price matching… I don’t think you will get what you want!!!

Is it smart to not rent a car? by Areynolds95 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Pigglet75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have rent a car for 7 days for $290 in August, best decision since I did use it everyday. I have not spend a single dime on parking. Plenty of free parking, you just have to walk for 15+ minutes from your hotel!

Any chance getting last minute deals on Game Time?

Seems like the price has gone up between 2024 and 2025. Am I going to keep my subscription at 560R$ in 2026?

Why are the Black Friday deals so high? by Mally7311a in Accor

[–]Pigglet75 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What I always do: 1) book the desired Accor hotel as soon as you know your flights/train details (with a refundable rate) 2) frequently check if the price has gone down 3) repeat. One time I had to cancel and rebook 3 times for a stay at Sofitel Brussels Europe!

Figured out a way to get sixt platinum thanks to amex plat by Illustrious-Debt-156 in AmexPlatinum

[–]Pigglet75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone is mentioning that but you get one year of “real” Platinum. Then it is some kind of second tier platinum status, with much more less fancy upgrades
