I have 228k UR points. I've used them for 3 nights each at the Andaz Napa and Andaz 5th Ave in the last few months and transferred some more to United for an award booking but I'm earning them at an unbelievable rate so my total keeps growing. feels incred.
Man, I have 176k and was starting to feel pretty good about myself. The Chase churning rule changed recently right? They used to be unchurnable, but are now churnable every 3 years, am I remembering that right?

i'm hilton gold and booked my wife a standard room at the kc plaza embassy suites the other week. she went into her room and noticed a door and decided to open it. inside was a large conference room with a twelve person table, chairs, projector and large flat screen tv. that was a kind of funny upgrade.

Hey I have an offer for American AAdvantage Platinum Select 50k + 2 Admirals Club passes and then another for American AAdvantage Gold for 50k.  Can I do both?  If not, then the Platinum?

IHG bought Kimpton. Makes priority club points more attractive. Other than Intercontinentals they didn't really have any destination properties but there are some pretty cool Kimptons in the US.

I hadn't recognized Kimpton until this post.  I'm completely surrounded by them.  The Alexis' valet parking destroys the street I use to get on the highway during busy hours.

if you're staying at a Hyatt this weekend tweet @hyatt_concierge and tell them your stay details and they'll give you "holiday cheer" which based on availability could be:

Complimentary suite upgrades
Welcome amenities
$100 Food and Beverage Credits
“Upgraded” Rooms

the US Air card is now 50k after one purchase. have to pay the annual fee but it's a tiny percent of the value of the miles. miles will be AA miles soon. I can refer anyone that wants to sign up and I get 5k miles so all of you PM me with your name and email and we'll all get rich on miles.
