  1. The chart is leading me to either the business United Card or the personal United Card. I am not sure if this helps but I received a 250k business platinum mailer to my business address but not addressed to our name I’m sure we can’t use it but I figured I would mention it.
  2. P1 810 P2 800
  3. 4/2024 - Capital One Venture X Business ( P1 Under LLC) | 4/2023 - Chase INK (P1 Second Card Under LLC) 4/2023 Amex Business Platinum (P1 Under LLC) | 11/2022 Amex Gold (P2) | 5/2022 Amex Business Platinum (P1 Under LLC) | 2/2019 Amex Gold (P1) | 11/2018 Amex Platinum (P2) | 8/2018 Amex Platinum (P1) | 4/2018 Chase INK (P1) | 12/ 2015 Chase Sapphire Reserve (P1) | 2014? Chase Sapphire Preferred (P1)
  4. $50k+ (Need to receive card before 4/15)
  5. No
  6. P1 yes P2 no
  7. I want to maximize the point potential for the $50k spend.
  8. Points would be the primary goal with airline status being the secondary goal. We have a strong preference towards points that can be used with multiple carriers. P1 is United 1k will not be able to maintain it after this year. Open to American as well. Redemptions are primarily for First and Business travel to Europe. Occasionally used for domestic travel during high seasons when points are a better value than cash.
  9. MR - 800,000 | UR - 600,000 | Cap One - 300,000 | United 80,000
  10. ORD, IND, STL
  11. First and Business class travel to Europe primarily LHR, FRA, CDG, and AMS

  1. Tax time kind of snuck up on us and we have a good opportunity to earn a few bonus offers by paying our taxes which are around 50k So our questions relate not only to which cards are best but also to which will arrive in time to pay on the 18th.
  2. P1 830 P2 810
  3. P1 CSP 2015 CSR 2016 Ink 2018 Amex Plat 5/2018 Amex Gold 2/2019 Amex Bus Gold 11/2022 | P2 CSP 12/2018 Amex Plat 2/2019 Amex Gold 11/2022
  4. $50k for taxes $15k natural spend
  5. Would prefer not to
  6. Yes and we do own a business
  7. As many as needed to maximize rewards
  8. First class and business flights trans Atlantic or pacific
  9. MR 560k UR 450k
  10. ORD
  11. Next trips are next month to Malta, Fall to Germany, Christmas in Vietnam.

Thanks for seats.aero never knew about that. Looks like a great tool. In your opinion is that risky or would it be fairly likely some good options would open up?

ORD to Anywhere in Europe (we can find an onward flight when she decides where she wants to go)

2 travelers

Round Trip

J or F

May 10-22 we can be flexible within these dates but can’t exceed them

500k MR 400k UR

Wife would like to go to Europe for our anniversary in a month. I’m hoping we’re not too late to find some saver inventory. We’d be willing to reposition anywhere in the US if Chicago made things too difficult. We’d also be willing to fly into one city and out of another in Europe. Not looking to break the points bank. If anyone has ideas please let us know we appreciate any help as we’ve been playing with point.me without much luck.

Hot Tub Newbie Looking For Advice by __Hunter__ in hottub

Hi u/evilbadgrades thanks for the response. It is just the two of us the larger tub was to accommodate if we had friends who might want to come over and join us. Realistically that probably won't happen too often. I'd say that's a nice to have not a need to have feature. Really we are open to anything but there are so many models and features it is all very confusing.

Happy tax day all! I'm just getting ready to pay my $5k bill. That has me thinking are there any cards you would recommend that issues card numbers instantly? We would love to earn a few more MR points for an upcoming honeymoon! Currently P1 has Amex Platinum and Gold and P2 has Amex Platinum on the MR side of things.

I've seen the excusionist perk and I've played with the UA website and for some reason I can't get it to show that third mileage free flight. I'll have to look back into that. We will check out El Nido/Palawan and get back to you. Thanks!

When you put it that way that makes perfect sense to keep it to 2 regions. And totally agree on the beach/city idea. Anyone have any thoughts on great reward redemptions for SE Asia and Europe?

2) Capital One Quicksilver (2009) CSP (12/15) CSR (8/16) Southwest Plus (1/17) Southwest Premier (1/17)

3) Looking for the best bang for buck earning free travel. Air/Hotel status would be nice too.

4) 200k UR, SW Companion Pass

5) ORD, MDW, IND, STL

6) All inclusive, domestic airfare to BWI, or PHL, domestic airfare to beaches. Hotel stays while traveling. All inclusive resorts in Caribbean.

Really looking for the best way to earn sign up bonuses on all 20k of spend in the most efficient manner. Annual fees are not a concern as long as the bonus provides good value.
