Might need to call in if you can’t do it online.
Not sure how good the Turkish Airlines website is.

Travel Pro but get the ballistic nylon versions, not the cheaper polyester that won’t hold up and looks scratched after 2 trips.
Briggs and Riley but they are pricey.
They hold up beautifully though.
I was a device rep and had those bags in and out of my car daily for YEARS.
They aged so nicely considering the abuse.
My company paid for them though so it was easier to pay the premium.

MemberMay 13, 2024 at 9:36 am in reply to: Anyone Have Experience Flying To Mexico For Dental Work?A friend of mine got a full set of new teeth—either caps, crowns, or veneers—in Turkey.
He paid $7,000 for everything, including flights, hotel, and dental work.
The dental procedures took 2-3 days, and he stayed there for a week.

In my experience, it can take anywhere from 2 to 10 weeks for a bonus to show up in your Chase account.
It depends on when Chase’s system recognizes that you’ve made a referral and when your billing cycle ends.
After the system acknowledges your referral, you’ll see the points in your Pending section, and they’ll be credited after the next billing cycle closes.

MemberApril 15, 2024 at 7:08 pm in reply to: How To Book ANA Domestic Business Class With Miles?I just moved some money from my American Express account to All Nippon Airways (ANA) and used it to book a flight within the country.
I didn’t opt for any premium services since it was just for a trip to Okinawa.

I loved the snorkeling right off the beach.
The food was good, but not excellent.

MemberFebruary 9, 2024 at 1:14 pm in reply to: Hyatt Regency Amsterdam Vs Andaz Prinsengracht?I really enjoyed my stay at the Hyatt Regency Amsterdam last year.
Breakfast is in the restaurant and the buffet is extensive.
In the evening the lounge has light food, it could serve as dinner if you’re not hungry but there’s only 1 hot appetizer, cheese, bread, salad, and a cold appetizer.
Good wine.

That’s entirely up to what it is you are trying to learn.
If you want to learn the cents per point of what you paid for the entire trip, then you would add the two points costs together the two cash prices together, and the two taxes and fees together, and then plug those total numbers into the equation.
If, however, you want to learn the cents per point of each flight, you do the equation twice, once with each flight’s numbers.
If you care to learn what you are paying compared to a round-trip price, then, yes, you would do 1/2 of a round-trip price (or, yes, discover the round-trip price, divide by 2, and plug into the equation).
Basically, what I’m saying is, to figure out the question you are asking first, and then set up the math to answer that question.

MemberJanuary 31, 2024 at 9:55 am in reply to: Do Cancun Car Rentals Require Third Party Insurance?Have rented twice from EasyWay without issue.
Price was as quoted.
Withdraw cash from the airport ATM and pay for gas with cash only.
Driving in foreign countries isn’t for everyone but despite what some comments say, it’s often a lot cheaper than taxis or shuttles, especially if you plan on going off the resort ever.

I wasn’t getting a lot of value out of Point.Me, so I canceled it.
I sometimes use Roame.Travel, Seats.Aero and just heard about PointsYeah but nothing really compares to just doing the award searches yourself.

I don’t know where the Hyatt’s are (I can look later if no one answers) but the area around LAX sucks.
I’d try to stay in Santa Monica or Marina Del Rey.
