Using rewards properly

I want to present an example of how I was able to maximize rewards . I used 55,600 miles to cover a recent travel purchase . Had I converted to cash , it was 230 dollars . For the above transaction I will get a credit of 556 dollars instead .

Probably would have been even more with transfer partners.

I am simply presenting this as an example for those who ask about the value of points / cash vs travel redemption .

Cover travel purchase

I was checking my account and it seems one can only go back 3 months in time to use points to cover travel purchases.

Is this accurate?

I have something posted on June 30 and I need to wait for more points to cover it in full . I wonder if that charge will still be available for cover purchase in the next few months .

Thanks

positive experience

Credit where credit is due.

DL canceled 313 on Sunday . Was able to rebook without issue and they covered meals , taxi and hotel seamlessly through the app .

Was some mechanical fault but that was not the only flight canceled that day , wonder whats going on .

Approved for Savor -CL 30,000

I already have Cap One Venture X since 4 years and today added Savor to the mix .

Does paying for internet ( Verizon Fios) and cable count as " entertainment for the 3 x boost ?

I am planning to put Nextflix/Apple/Spotify etc on Savor also

Any other tips to maximize bonus points to transfer to Venture X for travel purposes ?

also did I mention it's a Mastercard, not Discover.

Global entry validity

I applied for GE in Sept 2022 and full approval in Dec 2022 . Today I saw it is valid till Sept 2028 .

Should it not be valid till Sept 2027 ? 2028 would make it over 5 years validity . Just wondering not complaining obviously

Easy breezy at Logan

I am GE since October 2022 . Yesterday returned to Logan via CDG. Kept walking as if I was a car with EZ pass tag. No stopping for fotos or anything . I could see my foto on agents desktop and he waved me through ...you are all set ....never took out my passport from my bag even and no other conversation. That's it . Twas a breeze .Worth every dollar spent ( which is reimbursed by my travel cc )

No 1 lounge at Heathrow

I was transiting through Heathrow yesterday and this was the difference between general areas and the priority pass lounge. I had to twait for 10 minutes in a line and since I was within 3 hours of boarding I was allowed entry . Food options were limited but decent and coffee was good . Bathroom could have been cleaner and brighter but ok . Overall a good bargain to spend 2 and half hours peacefully at a busy airport.

First tattoo advice / suggestions

Hi group

I am toying with the idea of 2 small tattoos on my ankle / wrist most likely .

I know of a reputable place where I got my piercing as well .

How much pain ? Time to heal ? Precautions ? Suggestions ? I should know of before I make an appointment.

How many months in advance should I get it done if I want to be ready to show it off by say Sept October 2026 ?

Any chance of getting amex delta gold 600 dollar statement credit ?

I opened delta gold amex and 2 days later booked a long distance flight worth 1500 dollars .

I had forgotten to log in to Delta website as myself and during checkout there was an ad for delta gold card offering 50000 points and 600 dollar statement credit. But by then I had already opened my delta gold amex .

I then chatted with Amex agent on the Amex app and explained this to him and he said he will open a review .

Do you all think they will really consider this and give me 600 dollars statement credit ?

I will be flying solo 99 percent of the times . Generally do not check in bag for domestic travel.

I would like priority boarding and lounge access. Which Delta card fits this need ?

I don't think I will use the companion certificate . Nor do I use Uber and door dash etc much .

I am unable to justify getting platinum reserve for my needs .

Is there a solution that I am missing ?

PS I have excellent credit and am using a capital one venture x currently for travel.
