yes, the business miles don't actually post to any account, they are in a pending site, you have to move them to your personal AA account, and I think you can also move them to an "employee" account. I believe the employee needs to be an authorized user.
Can confirm that the employee does not need to be an authorized user on the card. Just listed on the biz site is enough
That's great news! I actually haven't transferred any of my business points because I was hoping to transfer them to DH since he has the most points in his account.
Assuming you haven't had the IHG Biz bonus for 24 months, then the 30 days is just a guideline to avoid them trying to reopen the card, rather than give you a new one with the bonus attached. I've read elsewhere that people are successful in getting a new card with a bonus as little as 4 days after closing the prior card.
Sorry to circle back to this - but any update on if the MB charges coded as 5%? We're going in May and i'm not doing my normal stock up of GC at Staples using my CIC since I figured I could just use freedom cards to pay the hotel bills at end of stay. Hoping that's the case!
stayed at hilton point at the peak last month for cactus league baseball. FN and points. they had a water park attached to hotel property. no micro in room but had coffee and fridge. breakfast or food credit was used in gift shop which also had starbucks (and microwave available). lots of hiking available in phoenix. rooms were king bed in back room. split bath in middle and small livingroom in front. had small balcony also. free water bottles in room. pool also at hotel which is open more hours than the water park. did a sunset jeep tour and had an amazing sunset. wanted to do botanical gardens but we ran out of time. we were only there for a long weekend. weather was amazing, 70-80 degrees.
I'm $10 away from meeting MSR so no SUB yet. I have combined my biz miles to my personal miles. pretty easy.
Do you have any URs? I just transferred URs to Flying Blue as they have a 25% bonus through end of April. I'm getting ready to book in May. I'll have to take a positioning flight but expecting a 50K biz class from US to FCO through CDG.
Yeah, we have about 250K left but I'm worried about all the INK denials, lol. We got two in January without issue but I usually think of URs just as Hyatt points. Meanwhile, we have a lot of MRs. But maybe I'll just do it, we'll just try to be careful applying for the next INKs--all the dps on here will be helpful in preparing for the next INK apps, likely in August or September
We stayed at the Enchantment Resort. It's still one of my favorite hotels ever!
Thanks for the dps!
I just downgraded my Aspire (Ive had the other flavors already) because I agree, theyve really messed up the value. Hoping they'll offer me an upgrade offer in the future haha
Using this method I can reliably pull 190k, but nothing greater. Which is still a great offer. But because 250 is out there, I haven't taken the bait. Not sure what to do...
I've had my Hilton surpass for 20 years, never rec'd an upgrade offer! spend around 30k year on and already diamond though
That outdoor water park looks pretty cool! Is it warm enough to swim in March? Where did you do the jeep tour at?
What type of room did you stay in? The pool suites look awesome but so expensive lol
