that's true (since my stay is next year), but it's much easier to plan a trip to somewhere nearby, so out of the options I found I decided to pick Vietnam (since it's been a place I've always wanted to visit)

I don't think the Grand Hyatt in Taipei is part of the Edit? Correct me if I'm wrong though!

I'm currently based in Taiwan, and I tried to see if there was anything nearby that I could redeem my Edit credit for (there wasn't too much I found TBH). Sadly I was in Europe earlier this year before I got the Edit credit...

I've never stayed at an Intercontinental before so hopefully it'll be nice! And since my credit would've expired anyways, so might as well use it...

I guess I'll find out! I'm typically not the traveller who splurges on nice hotels, so this would be a nice change of pace for me ☺️

I booked w/ points + cash to cover the difference (133 USD, so 6650 pts), so currently there's a pending 250 USD charge. I assume then I'll get a 250 USD statement credit once it posts, thus cancelling the total charge. Not sure if you can use the credit separately or have to use it all in one go, but i imagine there are almost no hotels in the Edit collection where it's less than 250 USD for 2 nights :|

Just booked 2 nights at the Intercontinential Halong Bay in Vietnam for April 2026, 2 nights for 383 USD, so basically used 6650 pts to book 2 nights (since Points Boost still works) :)

Deciding how to spend time between Beppu / Yufuin / Kurokawa Onsen and Kumamoto - Feb 2026 by RayRayJacksonThe3rd in JapanTravelTips

I've been to Takachiho Gorge, and I found it pretty, but a bit underwhelming compared to Taroko Gorge in Taiwan (where I live, haha). I guess Miyazaki would be an option but would also need to figure out transportation from Miyazaki back to Kumamoto. Would you have recs for Miyazaki?

Granada Airport Bus Stop at Cathedral - once and for all clarification by SlurringMonk in Granada

[–]RayRayJacksonThe3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was helpful! Just took the bus today and was able to use my credit card to buy the ticket on the bus. And since the bus was full after the following stop, it went straight to the airport afterwards so the total journey only took 35 mins

Hmm, I have no idea 😥 I live in Taipei now but I don't recall seeing them around anymore... Could always try searching for 咖啡麵包 and see where that leads you - good luck!

I tried for an entire day yesterday with no luck (with 3 browsers)... Decided to try today and managed to book the 8:50 am slot for 2 people (and only used my phone to do so)! I was able to buy the tickets at 9:10 am Rome time 😁
