MemberApril 20, 2024 at 9:27 pm in reply to: Does Credit Card Travel Insurance Cover Point Bookings?Depending on the length and reason for the flight delay or cancellation, it’ll decide if you’re eligible for compensation from the airline.
They should aim to get you on another flight.
Insurance policies vary; whether you bought one or used a credit card with coverage, they each come with different terms.
The insurance company will likely ask you to file a claim through the airline initially.

Chase Sapphire Preferred is a no-go for lounge access.
You should need the Chase Sapphire Reserve.
If the Venture comes with Priority Pass (I think only the Venture X comes with PP), then technically yes, but you need to check the Priority Pass app to see which lounges are eligible.

MemberFebruary 5, 2024 at 1:29 pm in reply to: Do Airlines Check Size And Weight Of Personal Items?Personal Items are typically never checked but carry on typically is.
If you are flying Basic Economy or Spirit, or Frontier, expect that they will try to extract more money out of you with the baggage.
Better to be safe than sorry.

I think the direct route via Uber or taxi is worth both the time and money.

My partner uses Bang & Olufsen Beoplay HX (pricy, yes. But absolutely worth the price tag)

MemberDecember 11, 2023 at 5:12 pm in reply to: What’s Best Company For Cancun Airport Transfer?We are here now in Playa Del Carmen and flew into CUN.
We used MeetPlaya for transport.
That was the cheapest we found for private transport.
Also, you don’t have to pay the visitax.
This is our third trip in 18 months and though there are signs everywhere no one has ever asked us to show we paid it.
We decided we would just wait to do it if someone asked for it.
meetplaya.com
Starting at $29 USD. Private transfers from/to Cancun Airport, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Hotels, Resorts, towns, etc. Bilingual tours available. Meet the Riviera Maya with Leo.

We live in Virginia, so we don’t have the greatest options, but Snowshoe in West Virginia is decent.
We adored our trip to Salt Lake City a few years back and found it relatively affordable.
We specifically went to Solitude and Snowbird and loved them both.

They (Aer Lingus / Egypt Air) need to be interline partners with each other.

MemberOctober 9, 2023 at 9:14 am in reply to: How Long To Wait Between Business Credit Card Sign Ups?Amex is a soft pull until you accept the card on your first one.
Then if you accept it’s a hard pull.
Also, I would skip the BBP until you have an Amex and get targeted.
I just got 75K for a $15K spend targeted offer and took it.
Use their pre-approval tool

I think Hard Rock is still in the Wild Card system.
So might still be able to match from MGM Gold to their current system.
