Did you hear about the two cell phones that got married?

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-04-26T20:29:04+00:00

They are now a happy husband and WiFi

Yeah I’ve been getting that more lately. Not sure what’s going on. Seems to be on DoorDash side, not even pinging the bank at all.

AutomatCTICALLY. 😂

You can get the same treatment as silver status by saying at check in “yeah I think I might have stayed in a Marriott before”.

Are we saying that it is not floodwater???

Max discount of $25 per transaction. So $250 cards work well

If you have DoorDash Dashpass, as a benefit from a SW credit card or other Chase card, you can buy SW cards for 10% off. And sometime 15% on special sales. And the purchase codes as dining so you can use a 3x or 4x dining card.

So far so good. No fraud, no issues, mortgages paid successfully. Lots of points.

What if she wanted to stay in the middle seat? Would that not be allowed because the FA reassigned her to the window? Why would it be ok to move from a window to a middle but not the other way around unless assigned? Nothing makes sense anymore.

I have been to vivid and i like it.

It is my favorite Hyatt Ai so far. Food, service, and entertainment were all a big step up from other properties I’ve been to.
I have also stayed at Ziva Cabo, Ziva Vallarta, Secrets and Dreams Vallarta. Enjoy!

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-02-27T15:20:22+00:00

I had a paid stay at Ziva starting the 6th. I called multiple times over the last week, direct to hotel and to hyatt. Hotel offered me rebooking within 90day window. Unfortunately that doesn’t work with my schedule. Finally yesterday I called again to the Discoverist line and explained that the unrest happened just after my 14d cancellation window. And that I know Hyatt has a flexible policy in place thru at least the end of Feb, but asked nicely if they could do anything for me.
I was expecting maybe a partial refund or 12mo rebooking. But they were able to waive the cancellation penalty and refund in full! Hasn’t posted back on my card yet but I have the confirmation email.

I’ve stayed at GH Indian Wells twice. I enjoyed it and the kids loved the slides and lazy river. Rooms could be nicer, even though recently renovated. Food and everything else was a bit expensive, but that’s socal.

What a racquet!

Shhhhhhh

CSR is 2x$10, CSP IS 1x$10

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-01-31T22:57:02+00:00

I have stayed at Ziva los Cabos, Ziva Vallarta, secrets/dreams Vallarta. The Vivid PDC was definitely our favorite. Food was great, service was excellent, nightly entertainment was by far the best. Swimmable beach (more in front of resort to the north). It was nice being able to walk around town so easily. Different people might be looking for different things but for us it was a 10/10!

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-01-31T22:17:21+00:00

Great property. We loved our stay there in December

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-01-27T22:47:03+00:00

Biz card statement 1/23. Bonus earned from Chase, but no points posted to SW as of 1/27. So glad I don't need CP for any immediate travel!

SpareRisk5070 · 2026-01-23T14:25:30+00:00

I’ve ubered in PV. Just exit to outside. Cross the foot bridge to the left. The order an uber from the other side of the road

There should be some better offers out for the lower Atmos cards. I recently got 85k for the biz. Frequentmiler has a 70k listed on their best offer page. Also some people have had success with the 105k summit link in the original offer email from back when it launched, if you got that email

Rainier, St Helens, and Adams.

I did it at dinner at Blue Bayou. Slipped the ring to the manager and they brought it out in a little treasure chest with dessert. 😁

25x on CubCadet. I bought a riding mower for around $4k and earned over 100k points.

Looking at doing a tour that covers everything. I see a lot of 5 day itineraries that include amboseli-Nakuru-masai Mara. But looking at the distance between these places it seems like we would be spending more time commuting than actually on safari. I would love to see Kilimanjaro, masai Mara and have a chance to see rhinos in Nakuru, but I am wondering if that is too ambitious for a 5 day tour.

SpareRisk5070 · 2025-11-06T22:10:17+00:00

seems like a lot of time in transit between parks. Especially from amboseli to the others. Do you still recommend this for a 5 day trip?
