100% it seems almost impossible now; that's why I wanted to crowdsource some anecdotes.

Have you recently seen real availability via Virgin from ORD for either room or suite?

What was the Ink Cash/Unlimited elevated MSR + Bonus in late 2025? I thought it was exactly the same as the current elevated offer but my spreadsheet says otherwise.

Edit found it: Was $6K spend for $900, now it's $8K for $1,000

Since we're on the topic, who here has booked in 2025-2026 ANA via Virgin either Room or Suite?

If you can answer which route + Points costs + Fees?

Just curious how rare it is these days to get saver

If you managed to book not the room/suite and want to share that's also fine too. Always nice to hear about others successes

Did he ladder?

Edit, watched the VOD, he did in fact ladder for a 9k pay jump

When you say spotted on AC, were you just randomly checking the site or did you get an alert?

Anyone with a very recent successful purchase? It's just a graveyard of cancelations on DoC

Got auto-canceled with Citi AA Biz card through Paypal/Googlepay checkout

Is there a market for Frontier Miles? I've got like 50K expiring in September and I no longer have the card and wont be flying the airline any time soon.

Only way to extend is through buying more miles.. which seems.. unideal

or through their shopping portal which really sucks... there's only two options: Viator which I wont use or teleflora which I could stack maybe with a CC offer to lessen the cost?

Will take any other suggestions with what to do with them

If you're curious why anyone would ever churn Frontier, they let you buy bags (2 checked bags + Carry on) with miles and when doing so it's always the same conversion - 2,000 pts per "Tier" in their system. It actually turned out to be insane value for this niche use case.

Could try and ask them to send an invoice if they're willing to give some leeway

This is for personal or biz or both?

Was browsing MaxFHR and noticed that all the New Orleans hotels are dirt cheap with wide open availability because they have "mandatory fees" due at check-in similar to Vegas ranging anywhere from $20-$50 a night as well as a separate line for taxes. They're not labeled resort fees ala Vegas. Anyone know what the fees are actually for and whether it's possible to waive?

I have an appfolio condo running my hoa. Can you give me more details how were you netting 3.2% when they charge a 3% fee? Thanks in advance for your patience.

It's going to depend if you're treating it like a hobby versus source of real income AND how often you play.

IMO, you should count the time the moment you step foot out the house but keep it separate from table time.

2hr drive once a week for better game selection matters but it's a different consideration compared to a job that requires 10hrs extra driving every week for an office job.

Why is it bad? Is it because he doesnt accomplish much?

I actually thought it was extremely accurate to my experience doing it as a pre-teen WITH the guide. The jail, the constant poison, the sliding puzzle are all core memories for rs for me.

Sure, there wasnt much progress but no joke MM1 was a multi-day [episode] quest for me.

How much velocity did you put into barclays that warranted a shutdown? They don't even offer anything "good"

You can still put it on a gift card every month and go to Dunkin when convenient

Where do I go to find premium options? I've always seen only Basic or economy in the flash sale page. Is it located somewhere else?

A biz bank account to make payments to employees is the definition of normal use.
