    July 1, 2024 at 7:59 pm in reply to: Can You Access Priority Pass Lounge On Arrival?

    We used to use Priority Pass at the market our airport has on arrivals, and what we would do was have the PP scanner ready, and have a screenshot of our arrival info, but zoom in a bit, then just read the flight number out loud quickly.

    Haven’t had issues.

    With Capital One Lounge, we zoomed in far enough because they scan the boarding pass where it doesn’t show the flight info, and normally talk to the agent at the same time.

    Dang, sorry to hear that.

    When I got that 250K MR offer, it was only for $15K in spend, not $20K that I’m seeing on the post.

    AMEX is funny changing the numbers like that.

    Some people do tip at the bar in the airport lounge and sometimes there is a jar for tips.

    But it is not required and I personally never do.

    A basic rule of thumb is if they don’t bring you a bill, then it is all sort of included in the price.

    If they bring you a bill for the food or drink, then you should tip.

    Our go-to airport hotel in YYZ and YHZ is the Alt Hotel.

    In YYZ you simply hop on the train shuttle to the Viscount parking garage at the end of the line and the Alt is next door.

    Most comfortable beds in the industry.

    Second is the Sheraton YYZ which is connected to T3 and an easy hop on hop off of the train.

    Good hotel and usually excellent service.

    In December, I got two Chase cards on the same day, one for my business and one for personal use.

    It’s pretty common for folks to snag two Southwest cards around the same time, so it’s definitely doable.

    Just keep an eye on your total number of cards with Chase.

    Generally, I wouldn’t go over four Chase cards in a year per person, even if you’re under the 5/24 rule.

    I use a Canadian brand called Jack 59.

    I don’t know specifically but I have heard that just paying the taxes and fees on an award booking gets you coverage so this sounds pretty similar.

    HR Amsterdam was amazing for me last May.

    Walkable, but not touristy.

    Wonderful decor.

    Regency Club attendant went above and beyond, offering local suggestions, and helping with dinner reservations.

    Plus the breakfast was the best hotel buffet I’ve ever had.

    Highly recommended.

    It can take weeks!

    Also just a heads up, Chase will send you an IRS tax form next year for the value of the points.

    February 1, 2024 at 12:58 pm in reply to: What’s Best Hyatt Hotel In Boulder, Colorado?

    I would not stay in Broomfield if the wedding is in Boulder.

    Hyatt Place in Boulder is decent but has no perks and any Hyatt place.

    Personally did not love the Hyatt Place Broomfield, Boulder is better and as a Globalist you should at least get the parking fee credited.

    My best advice is to check your credit card statement, there should be a ticket number on there next to the transaction.

    With that number, you can either call AA or can see the receipt online.

    https://www.aa.com/your-receipts/

    With that, you can then file an AA refund request online.

    If that doesn’t work, then file a chargeback.

    January 28, 2024 at 10:18 pm in reply to: How To Stay For Free At Four Seasons Hotel?

    As others have said, the only way to get an award night at a Four Seasons property is to redeem whatever reward points you have fixed value through the hotel booking portal of those reward points.

    Four Seasons is not part of any loyalty program.

    They do not have their own loyalty points.

    There’s no really easy way to shortcut a stay with them.

    No award night poors is what makes the exclusivity of the brand so appealing to many.

    You have to pay to play, one way or another.

    Atelier Playa Mujeres was absolutely unbelievable and I couldn’t recommend it more.

    We went there for our honeymoon in December and I honestly don’t think anything about it could’ve been better.
