    Cruise ships are notorious for stomach bugs such as Norovirus.

    Frequent handwashing and use of hand sanitizer.

    Especially after touching handrails on stairs, door handles/knobs, elevator buttons, handrails on deck, etc.

    Try not to touch your mouth, eyes, or nose until you’ve washed/sanitized your hands.

    Essentially, anything someone else could have touched before you is a reason to wash up.

    Curious about this strategy for cards with high annual fee.

    Unless really useful are those ones that you typically downgrade before the fee hits?

    Looking at the AMEX Platinum business with the 150K sign up bonus.

    I am P2 on the personal one so does that count toward the 1 bonus per card?

    If you mean an upgraded seat in the same cabin, then as long as you don’t make any changes to the ticket, nobody is going to change your seat.

    Is there something like a 2-night minimum?

    It flat out says in the T&C no gift cards for the credit, so let us know how this works out.

    Never rent a car in Bali.

    You will crash in 1 minute.

    We were there last month and hired Zayen for several days.

    Send him a message on WhatsApp.

    It’s tighter than I’d like, though Zurich is a great airport to connect.

    You could do it if everything went according to plan, but you’d be exposed if there were any delays leaving the USA.

    Yes, you should be able to.

    Worst case, you can use the airport baggage storage we found online.

    It seems like there are multiple options there.

    Honestly it’s a very short flight, so I’d pay cash.

    February 5, 2023 at 4:44 pm in reply to: Does Chase Freedom Flex Cell Phone Insurance Work With Auto Pay?

    Haven’t used it (insurance) since the change – we have a debit card set up for Autopay but also manually pay all but $5 with CCs.

    You must pay your Cell bill in full – we also have T-mo 5G home internet billed with our Cell bill its $45 with Autopay.

    So “technically” we met the explicit terms of “paying full cell bill bla bla bla for the previous billing cycle” (paraphrased).

    I have read DPs of people paying their full bill with a card manually a few days before auto pay – and they still get the autopay discount (haven’t felt like gambling the $40 AP discount to try yet – but T-mo has been pretty good at crediting various things in the past – even the Home Internet $50 GC credit promo that came out a few months after we signed up – so I may start trying it.

    That said we used the Chase Cell phone insurance/purchase protection 4X in 2018/19 CIP and CIC 90 day purchase protection on cracked screens. (All had cases as well).
