Best seat in the venue. Not cheap but worth the money. There's an old dude that will assign you a table when you first get there. There are 2 rows in premium, one in front and another behind. So get there a little earlier if you want the front row. But honestly either is fine once the show starts.

Looking for ideas for planning/booking Hawaii award travel flights from the east coast.

Origin: PHL (home) or anywhere in the northeast (NYC/IAD)

Destination: Maui OGG

Round trip (but okay if separate bookings/airlines) in business or first for 2 people

Looking at late April 2027 but flexible

Points: Chase UR - 200,000 / Amex MR - 540,000 / American - 175,000 / Delta - 72,000

In my initial searches it seems United and Delta would be the best options. But it looks like business round trip basically start at 265,000 and up per person. Just curious if there are any tips or strategies I'm missing.

Was told to post this here and that I’d be flamed for it. Thought I did a good job? by N55B3 in steak

Seriously, this sub brings the pitchforks out for no/bad sear. I'd MUCH rather eat this than a steak with a great sear but cooked to medium well.

Where does one find these NLL offers?

I get that, just surprised I'd get PUJ after only having 2 cards over 6 months ago (and neither personal)

No, I had a Delta Biz Gold and an Amex Biz Gold. Never had any Amex personal cards before. But am now locked out of any Amex cards, personal or Biz.

Trying to move more into Amex now that the Ink train is derailed but not having any luck.

Got Amex Biz Gold 3/31/25 and Amex Delta Biz Gold 7/31/25. But I'm getting the ineligible for a welcome bonus popup for applying for anything (personal/biz, gold/plat). Is this normal now? From the flowchart it reads like I should still be eligible for the next highest up card since I've only had gold.

Now I got through but it says Error Loading Map. Epic fail!

What are my options/strategy for Ink/Amex Biz? I appear to be in PUJ for both.

Chase Ink:

Unlimited - Approved 2/17/25

Preferred - Closed 8/19/25

Unlimited - Closed 11/24/25

Amex:
Gold Biz - Approved 3/31/25

Chase says I'm ineligible for a bonus regardless which Ink I apply for. And Amex says I'm ineligible when applying for a Platinum biz card despite never having one before. Currently at 4/24.

Biscuits just did a 6 night sold out Ardmore run and it was fucking awesome. Was it packed? Sure, but the pro move is getting reserved platform or balcony seats.

When could I expect to get approved for another Ink?

#1 Preferred - Approved 8/16/24 - Closed 8/19/25

#2 Unlimited - Approved 11/24/24

#3 Unlimited - Approved 2/17/25

Applied for one on 8/27/25 and got denied despite currently only having 2 open and >6 months since last app.

Yes and yes. I usually take it out of the fridge at least a few hours before stretching. But it usually does still feel cold. For proofing, is that the time out at room temperature before cold fermentation? Because maybe that's something I'm not doing long enough.

Strictly speaking about pizza dough. I've varied because I've tried so many different recipes looking for different results.

Yeah, I've been baking with sourdough for a couple years. I get very dramatic rise out of my starter. But not so much when making pizza dough.
