i kept mine ive gotten 60$ worth of flight deals for sure.
I'm conflicted because New Zealand has been on my list to visit for a long time. But I would prefer booking 11-12 months out, and the Thrifty deals have been for a lot less than that. Membership renews tomorrow so I guess tonight I need to research if booking J seats to New Zealand is feasible a year out.
yeah i think they just released this because a lot of people are renewing or on the fence.
Well I was freaking out for no reason; It did require a call to recon which was transferred to the Fraud line (still don't know why) but now I am approved.
Oh I'm well aware of F1, LOL. We actually are there the Sun-Th leading into it. And our rooms are only $250/nt at Palazzo. I did look to see if I booked outside of the conference what the cost would be (to get the IHG points) and they are $1100/nt. But looking at the airfare chart to Vegas in Nov period, the rates are around the same price. So it's not likely the race. Plus I'm flying in before and leaving the day of. It's probably going to be a NIGHTMARE getting to McCarran w/ all the roads closed. I may need to tram down to MGM and hope I can get out there easier. Hmmmm.
Did you apply for the 5 FNC?
I just asked about this. For the next year I don't think I'd be able to use it. But $60 is cheaper than $90....and I would be able to use it in 2 years, LOL. Or next summer. IDK. I'll probably still keep it. Or maybe I'll sign up under the new promo w/ a different email.
For Japan? Yeah, I want to fly ANA but am planning on JAL because I don't know what availability will be like when it's time to book for me, which will be just after Thanksgiving. Meanwhile, there's currently an Amex transfer bonus to BA. So I'll just do JAL via BA as that seems easier, though sadly more expensive with the taxes and fees.
If you have the old promo, that's better than the new of you're keeping the subscription. You'll keep the $60 rate for as long as the account is open. Meanwhile, the new price of $90 would be your new price after a year with a new subscription (40% off first year, but $90 thereafter).
Thanks! I linked to the first offer also. I mostly use Starbucks when traveling, and will be at Disney, so I hope the in park SB will count. It seems to be just make a purchase, nor order a specific item, so it should.
I completed the first 2 purchase 1000 mile offer and was automatically enrolled in the second offer...I NEVER (ever) purchase from SB so it was a challenge to find something to buy (other than bottled water lol) but found myself enjoying the strawberry acai beverage-especially during these warm days. I'll delete the app once these challenges are over next week but it's an easy way to get miles without flying

Yeah, I think I've decided to keep mine out of fomo of losing out on my current $60 price. And good point about ideas, that's valuable too.
