I got a 10% shop Disney offer on my csp. Anyone know if that applies to GCs?
Yes. I've done it many times.I got a 10% shop Disney offer on my csp. Anyone know if that applies to GCs?
Thanks for posting this…my 3 year old grandson in Orlando has been many times and loved Sesame Street land…I’ll have to look into it although he’s tall for his age…at least 40 inches and now loves all things Disney.Not sure if anyone is interested but Seaworld is offering a free preschool pass for kids 5 and under. You have to activate it by February 28 and it’s good until the end of the year. We got one for ds because we’ve never been with him before and he’ll be free!
Newbie who has never used RMN for shop disney GC. Anything else I need to know? My Chase offers are only on up to $50 GC, can I do the 10% RMN offer more than once in a day on separate orders?Yes it does. And try using a cashback site, any peeps use retailmenot when they offer 10%. Here's cashback monitor so you see the various rates.
EDIT to add: Retailmenot is at 10% cb now!
you can but i usually switch devices so that the transaction doesn't get confused. i think i read up to 7 per offer.Newbie who has never used RMN for shop disney GC. Anything else I need to know?

Something else to keep in mind is RMN on GCs is YMMV. I've had success, but there are reports of it not working. It's worth a try if you're planning to purchase anyway.Newbie who has never used RMN for shop disney GC. Anything else I need to know?

No, Chase Freedom and Freedom Unlimited offers. If it doesn't work I will be happy with the 10% on shop disney.

I’ll be doing the same in April…unless PYB returns for dining in the second quarter… but not really optimisticNo, Chase Freedom and Freedom Unlimited offers. If it doesn't work I will be happy with the 10% on shop disney.
Now that the Chase Sapphire Reserve has abandoned the PYB on dining, I will be using GC for all my Disney dining next trip.
yep, RMN still works so you're good to go!No, Chase Freedom and Freedom Unlimited offers. If it doesn't work I will be happy with the 10% on shop disney.

We'd love to help. If you've been out of booking for a bit, you might try point.me which is a newer points search engine. I think there is a free trial of it, if you want to give it a whirl. You can input your dates and see what comes up. You can filter by the currencies (points programs) you have to work with.
When I take a quick look at Alaska, I do see availability from SEA-MUC for the whole month of September on their partner BA, for 60k points + $911 in taxes, per person. Those fuel surcharges are hefty, but it's an option.

BUD-SEA is much more reasonable at 60k +229/pp.

I do see some biz flights show up on united, but they are a lot of points per person. But they are there. I'm not familiar with these routes, so there may be much better redemptions, which is where point.me could come in and give you the ability to play on your own. And then they have really great instructions on booking. Remember to ALWAYS confirm availability with the airline before transferring your points. It seems like you have airline points in a few programs, so the above tip doesn't really apply. But do you have any Chase URs, AMEX MRs or Capital One points?
Hopefully others will chime in with some advice.
Here's AA too. Availability out there.

I agree with @FreeDiningFanatic and your best option would be to use a searching tool like point.me or seatspy or expertflyer and perhaps set up an alert. Most airlines will open up award flights at 330 - 355+ days out and business/first class seats get snatched up quickly depending on the route.
Good to know, thanks!Welcome !
If you can't find a decent flight to Munich, try looking at flying into at Frankfurt. You could easily catch a (very) short flight from FRA to MUC. Frankfurt is a Lufthansa hub, the catch is that Lufthansa releases biz class seats around 14 days before departure. You can book other flights, then cancel them if you are able to grab seats on Lufthansa 2 weeks prior to departure (this is what I did on my trip to Budapest in December -- I had another flight booked, then cancelled when I was able to snag first class on Lufthansa to FRA, I then took a quick flight from FRA to BUD.
On another note, I called Chase because I haven't received my new CIC and dd's res and tuition is due on the 20th. They haven't 'released' the card yet. I asked them if they can courier to my address north of the border and they agreed (they said 2-3 biz days). Wish that I called yesterday because I have to use Plastiq to pay them and they mail a check.
