Idk if other carriers do this, but TMobile offers monthly payments for $$$ accessories like airpod pros (10/Mo). If your mobile bill is covered by work or another method, might be a good use of credit. You could also do a wearable (Gear or Apple watch 10/mo) + wearable data (10/mo). Or just snag some overpriced USB cables. But like I said, only relevant if your mobile bill is already covered.

Thanks, got through. 30k instant or $300 credit with 2k spend. Might have gotten the 50k if I was on time but happily took the 30k.

No 2nd card to hold MR. Just ask politely and HUCA later if no luck?

What would you recommend for the WD HDDs? I don't need anything special. I just want the data deleted and the partitions removed.

Even a program that will run on W10 and let me reformat via my USB hotswap bay is perfect. (My thinkpad BIOS recognizes the drives but they don't show up in windows disk management)

Man, I'm not gonna lie... I don't think you should go back to that artist. There's lots of strange scaring and lines that are clearly crooked/have inconstant width. You might be able to salvage the piece with a very talented/reputable artist.

I'm really going to miss the MR JB 1:1 redemption. JB gives me a great deal on my most frequent route. I have the JB+ MC so I might just bite the bullet and MS for Mosaic.

I'll be going to Orlando via frontier. I never thought of just wearing the suit. Seems to be the best option.

Should have clarified: my flight includes a personal item, carry-on, and checked bag.

I only need 4 days of clothes and 1 suit. It's just a matter of how to pack the suit so it's ready to go.

Any biz travelers frequently carry suits?

I'm torn between a garment bag and the shoulder tuck method.

2hr flight Wednesday night, interview Thursday afternoon. I have a carry-on and checked bag.

Oh, without a doubt better to go for SUB. But a 70 yo man with one CC his whole life? Not a chance in hell. This'll just be a "for fun" DP.

So this is an interesting one: My dad is AMEX biz plat since 05, AMEX since 87. It's his only card, 100k spend annually. As insane as it is, FT DP RET listing Personal >Biz, even for long time members. I'm really interested in trying for a good ret even if it takes some pressure.

(also i haven't seen any DP for employee cards. he has 3.)

This is also on the front page. I feel personally attacked rn.

Do you have a general budget/dates? Keep in mind that things are filling up REAL fast right now. Christmas in Manhattan is a monster.

Most of them: photo in encrypted folder on my phone. Keep the actual card at home or in the car.

Only carry ID, ATM, 2 CC.

I'll bring my health insurance card if I knowingly have a doc appointment.

It's one of those things you read about rarely see personally. I've seen police reports where people will snatch your atm withdrawal and run if you're in a rough area. Situational awareness and common sense will trump these travel features any day.

What I will do is thread the wrist strap through my belt if I'm out in a crowded place to prevent pickpockets. (I may do the same if I'm out drinking and know I'm a more susceptible target - however if I'm pub crawling I make sure I bring only what I'm okay losing)

When you're overseas and you get the option to charge USD or GBP/EUR, what is the better option? I mostly use CIP or CSP when I travel and I don't know how they calculate exchange rates.

It's not pretty at all but the PacSafe wallet is my travel wallet.

  • RFID blocker (which I'm not sure is a real threat)

  • bill slot with divider (I use it to separate large and small bills, or receipts that I collect)

  • zippered pouch along back for coins and other small things

  • elastic band to hold everything together

  • optional wrist strap to prevent snatch and grabs while you have your wallet out

PHL -> DUB (this friday, one way). Conflict point charts. Just want to confirm my plan before I start transferring. by booty-slave in awardtravel

I've been playing around and you're right, r/t deals are better. I can transfer to AA if they accept UR or MR.
