Questions for first time visit to GWL Houston/Webster TX

We're planning a 1-night trip to GWL at Houston/Webster TX and have been soaking in advice on this page - very helpful, thanks!

Question (some pedantic):
- Is there any restriction to drive away for dinner etc. and come back? I would be surprised if multiple entries weren't allowed during the stay period?

- The parking charges ($25) are per night or per calendar day?

- Does each room have a microwave or we have to use in common areas?

- Do you find the pool water reasonably clean?

- Is the Wolf Pass , Paw Pass , MagiQuest worth it, or an overpriced add-on?

- Are there sufficient lanes in the bowling arena?

- Booking for a weekday, with 4-5 days notice and it is showing $198 (including tax) for 1-night. Is this reasonable considering short notice booking?

- Is there any other hidden fee, junk fee, resort fee, amenities fee when staying overnight?

Generate losses through active trading to offset gains

I've come across tax loss harvesting and heard that some people do active trading to generate losses so they can use it to offset gains. I'm struggling to understand this, because your 'benefit' is your marginal tax rate on the loss, it is not free money.
So if your marginal tax rate is 24% then a $100 loss is actually a $76 loss despite tax loss harvesting.

Can someone please explain me more...

Can I split my Fidelity account to track each goal?

I notice that Individual brokerage account can be marked for one goal only.

However I would want to use my investments split into multiple goals.

Is it possible to split the account into two and move the investments AS-IS (with all cost basis etc) into the 2 accounts and then mark them for each goal like retirement etc?

I did not get the full sign up bonus offer

I was booking a Southwest Airlines flight and saw the offer for 50k miles and $200 credit with $99 annual fee with 1 free checked bag.

I found the offer good as statement credit was taking care of annual fee. However, I have only received 50k miles after meeting minimum spend requirements.

When I called, they told me there was no such offer around the period I applied.

Unfortunately I did not take any screenshots etc.

Is there anything that can be done?

If Spirit Airlines will wind down operations as of 3am ET on Saturday, then why are they still selling non-refundable tickets 6 hours before (9pm ET)?

Customers are at bottom of list of creditors in case of liquidation proceedings...
