I would, just to keep the points on the highest UR redemption cardI think this got lost yesterday when I asked. When we PC dh’s CSR to a CF should I move all of our points to one of our CIPs?
The $1558 is for 3 nights, but that’s not for my birthday weekend (nov 1). It’s actually for the weekend of nov 14. We wouldn’t be able to plan out 11 months ahead so probably wouldn’t do a dvc rental. I’ve been looking at the confirmed reservations on the rental store but nothing so far for the dates I want
That's what we did. At the end of the message it gives an option to speak with a rep, I did that and just asked if I could get the card sooner. Just did it again for hubby's CIU this week and it's supposed to be arriving today according to UPS.What’s the procedure for getting the CIP expedited? Do I call the number I called to check the status?
This is the kind of experience I was worried about. Oh well, looks like it is worth a try anyway if it’s not too much of a hassle getting there.We were turned away for about a 5 pm flight. They were actually a little rude about it as the CSR PP was not a high enough level (they were letting some others in). I would try again but my husband thought they were rude too to the extent that he refuses to even go back and try there again. So if it is a huge hassle to get there (flying Southwest) honestly I would not bother. It isn’t that spectacular anyway.
Absolutely rely on @calypso726 for better info, but when I booked award travel through united, I seemed to be able to pick premium economy seats when I went to do my seat selection - it said that there would be an extra charge, but it didn't actually charge me anything. I haven't actually taken the flight yet, so maybe I was just misunderstanding what the seats were going to be like, but that is how it looked when I booked it.@calypso726 maybe you can help with my United question since I'm also trying to book United to Hawaii for 2020. When I search for premium economy seats from RIC to HNL, I get Saver awards of 22.5k one way. However, if I just search for regular economy, they're also only 22.5k. So I'm concerned that the premium economy may not actually be any different than regular economy, since they're all just showing up under the "Economy" banner. There's no indication that there is premium economy versus economy on the flight. Is it possible it's a flight without a premium economy option?
I hope that makes sense. I'm not super familiar with United so I may just be missing something. I only have a handful of United miles, so I can't click through to look at seat options or anything.
When we used the PP lounge they asked for our boarding passes along with ID and the PP card
I booked our trip to Rome this morning. We are going in April 2020. We are flying Delta comfort from JFK-FCO 66,000 miles per person round trip. We are staying at the palazzo naiadi for five nights using 240,000 Marriott points.

dont forget the courtyard right next to it!
Thanks! The rep said "I see you have a lot of accounts with us"That's what we did. At the end of the message it gives an option to speak with a rep, I did that and just asked if I could get the card sooner. Just did it again for hubby's CIU this week and it's supposed to be arriving today according to UPS.
Since your highest redeeming card would be the CIP, I would move there. Just in case there is a glitch or they stop allowing transfers of points. You don't want them stranded on a non-travel card.I think this got lost yesterday when I asked. When we PC dh’s CSR to a CF should I move all of our points to one of our CIPs?
Freedom trail, USS Constitution, JFK Museum, Harbor Islands, Salem, Cambridge/Harvard...people watching at Fanueil hall and Boston Common....lots of cycling using the Blue Bikes (I think I only used the T once all week). Took in a couple shows...Blue Man Group and Dear Evan Hansen.
Had a busy and fun week.

I'm not @calypso726 either but if it doesn't specifically say PE in the award chart, likely there's no PE seat. Seatguru dot com is my best friend when I'm searching for flights-you can put in the flight number and it will show the airplane (currently, obviously it can change) assigned and the configuration.
I've noticed when I search for award flights on United that the PE is very overpriced (ie-economy is 30k, premium economy is 120k, business is 155k) so I don't know if United has really figured out how to price this product miles redemption wise. Hope this helps
Ha! I think that is completely valid lol. I'm trying to tell myself to be less stingy with points... like it's okay to spend a few more for a better time or room! I have them, that's what they are for! Like before I booked Dolphin last night I was like, ooh the price went down! Turns out it was a double bed room.. and I had a moment of should I save 3k AA miles... and I had to tell myself NO, BOOK THE KING BEDSO was kinda upset I used that many points for club level. He was like Coronado springs is nice and that was 55,000 points and did we really need club level. Well, you know what he should answer his phone at work when I call to confirm the plans before I book. Plus, he acts like he is the one earning the miles? I earn them so I pick what we do lol
That happened to MILs. It got put back with a new expiration. But mine went back with the original expiration and I had to call and extend.Interesting that my refunded FN certs were reset with new expiration dates one year out.
I'd say if you won't be able to use your FN certs before they expire, and you don't want to talk to a human to ask for an extension, use them on a refundable reservation, then cancel to extend the expiration date yourself. But since my FN certs didn't automatically redeposit to my account when I canceled, and I had to call a rep anyway, it might just be more trouble than it's worth.
We leave for Disney Saturday late afternoon for a week (the trip we extended by a day to lattend SWGE preview). I need a few hundred in Disney GC and haven’t had time to utilize any deals to get discounts.
This late I have to take what I can buy in store. Other than Target 5% discount can I do better anywhere else? I suppose if Kroger has 4x fuel points that could be an option too (just more work since we try to max out with both vehicles filling at once).
Thanks for any tips/advice!
