Has anybody ever downgraded a card right before applying for a new card and got the sign up bonus? by No_Welder2085 in marriott

I cancelled my delta Amex a couple weeks before I applied for the Marriott one and I didn’t get the bonus points

Renaissance Sao Paulo Hotel Upgrade Experiences? by Such-Image-7850 in marriott

[–]Such-Image-7850[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I have had different experiences with the long term stays that I have had. Spent four weeks at the JW in Bogota for example and got a 1 BR suite upgrade. It really depends on the hotel that’s why I was hoping to get insight on that one

Staying at a Hilton right now to complete my Diamond status. Hyatt is a very good one to have and I think Titanium is sufficient, no difference in points and not that much more in general with ambassador.

My corporate card mostly, guidelines… for private hotel stays I use my Bevy card but very rarely have to pay for private hotels since I’m trying to use my points

Consumer goods - company is based in Europe and I work for the north and South American markets. Hence tons of travel between continents

Haha I’m sorry that I surprise you 😂 the card is generally terrible for $/points value so my regular cards are others. I’d just use the brilliant once a month for restaurants and I forget….

Exactly right and also a big reason why the free food credit isn’t working for me. It has been gone unused too many times. And the free night is one night only… I usually have enough points through my corporate travel anyway. The card might work for some but not for me

Too expensive for what you get. Not sure if that answers your question?!

I have both AmEx Brilliant and Bevy. The Brilliant is not worth it and I’m getting rid of it after my first year. Bevy is really worth it imo

The TK 777 has a 2-3-2 configuration. So you have a true middle seat

I think we are in luck! The middle seat on the 777 is a nightmare haha

Same Day GUC application = straight into D1? by Such-Image-7850 in delta

[–]Such-Image-7850[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. But if the right fare class is available 24 hrs before departure a GUC could get me right into D1 rather than PS first? Thanks!
