All this talk about MBs today has me thinking again about planning a trip to WDW. Keep trying to pencil it in somewhere, but too many places, too little time. Though mostly it's because we're tied to the school schedule and it just seems like there are no good choices. So - which would you say is the least worst in terms of crowds?
Thanksgiving week
Christmas week
New Year's week
Spring break - week before Easter
First week of June
I suspect it's first week of June, but that doesn't work well with our other travel plans. Second least worst too, please.
I think conventional wisdom is June, but we are here now and it is fairly busy. More importantly if is HOT. Which is fine but makes crowds seem much worse. I would do November.
My points have always posted a couple days after making a spend but I have been waiting weeks with no points and I hate to just keep waiting. My deadline to meet the MSR is in 3 weeks.
I am in a similar position waiting for my Delta miles......did you figure out what they may have disallowed?
So far my interactions with Amex on this....
Online Chat #1 - Yes, I can see the welcome offer on your account - you have to allow 6-8 weeks for the miles to post.
Phone Call #1 - Yes, the offer is on the account but you haven't met the required spend yet. (30 secs later)...Oh it looks like you have met the spend. Hopefully the bonus miles will post with your May statement.
Chat #2 - I'm sorry sir, there is no welcome offer attached to your account.
Call #2 - Yes I see the welcome offer, and can see you have met the required spend. I don't know why the miles have not posted and unfortunately, we cannot create a case to look into this as we have until your June statement to award them to your account.
And so the wait goes on.........
2 years ago I had similar experience with DH’s Delta Plat Biz. I finally reached out and they posted the points when I contacted through Twitter. Not sure if Amex is on Facebook but you could try that too if you are on it. I think chats and calls are useless.
