I visited a couple of years ago, and I would definitely say you need a car to see the different parts of the island, which I highly recommend.
However, the car I rented had a manual transmission.
You’ll need to ask specifically for an automatic and might have to pay extra, depending on the rental car company.
When you book a rental car online, there’s usually an option to select an automatic transmission.

Train travel across Europe is excellent, often faster, and more cost-effective compared to renting a car.

The renewal policy for the $300 travel credit on the Chase Sapphire Reserve depends on when you acquired the card.
For those who obtained it around its initial release or before 2018, it followed the calendar year.
However, for later acquisitions, it operates on an anniversary year basis.
You can verify the reset date within the Ultimate Rewards point portal, where your usage of the $300 credit is displayed.

Yes, Hyatt points get refunded pretty much immediately.

I am not a newbie and have to admit, I didn’t quite understand where to go to find these flights either.
Air France or Etihad?
Glad you asked the question!

I have stayed several times at the Marriott Renaissance Hotel at London Heathrow.
They have a bus service called the HOPPA bus and it services the main hotels around the airport.

With comfortable seats and lots of baggage space, Hotel Hoppa is the most convenient way to travel between your hotel and Heathrow Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5.

The bottom line for almost everyone is that this should be a moot point for most people as you should always have travel insurance for overseas travel these days for medical, quarantine, etc…

Capital One’s Purchase Eraser feature does exactly what its name suggests:
It allows you to use your accumulated rewards (miles, in this case) to “erase,” or offset, eligible travel purchases that you make with your card.
In effect, you get a statement credit for that specific travel expense, at a value of a penny per mile, as long as you make the redemption within 90 days of purchase.

Every part of a credit score is about risk.
Even though your utilization isn’t directly affected by 0% business floats, the bank letting you do the floating will obviously know.
You’re probably better off hitting another bank since they won’t have any idea that you’re carrying no-interest debt.
I combined all of my ink lines onto my newest ink to make the 0% go farther.
Both P1 and P2 got rejected multiple times when people were getting approved for inks while over 5/24.
To be fair, we’re both significantly over 5/24 so it might have had nothing to do with taking advantage of the 0%

You can transfer with AMEX or Capital One points but not Chase directly.

If it’s all ticketed on one booking, United must believe it’s possible.
Flew out of SFO last week to Perth, via Singapore, and would have to say it was pretty seamless.

I spent 2019 Christmas in Europe.
Vienna had a ton of Christmas markets leading up to Christmas.
Budapest had a few and was pretty spirited as well, though everything was closed for actual Christmas (Eve or Day, I don’t recall) (including most food!).
The two are a half day’s travel via train away from each other.
The Budapest Festival Orchestra does a special holiday concert on 12/26 every year where the concert audience picks the pieces they want to hear, if that’s your thing.
Budapest also has one of the world’s largest outdoor ice skating rinks during the holidays.
I haven’t personally stayed, but Park Hyatt Vienna is very well-regarded.
The Andaz is in a quiet location but underrated, especially at its price point.
Budapest’s Parisi Udvar (Hyatt) was great, but I stayed before the major category change.

Perhaps better call Singapore service hotline to see if they can accommodate this particular request.
