Good morning from VGF DISchurner peeps!
I am excited to report that PlanePrincess and I each finally have the Hyatt card in our Chase arsenal! A support link was used and the corresponding DISer has been notified. It’s been a long time coming to go from LOL/24 and under 5/24. We did take advantage of the situation and added a CIP for some more UR points merely days before Chase started tightening things up. We initially thought about being the DP for another business SP app but decided against that. Cancelling Ashford Castle and getting back over 270k UR points with no immediate travel plans in sight pretty much cinched it. We find ourselves in the unique position of not having umpteen trips on the horizon. This has us slowing our roll and not heading immediately towards LOL/24 again.
We should be back under 5/24 in the fall and will go for a final Chase card. Earlier this year we upgraded the Chase Boundless BonBlah card, which we’ve held for years, to a Ritz Carlton. So we will be churning the Chase BonBlah. The Amex Brilliant BonBlah will be downgraded and the Amex biz BonBlah which we’ve also had for years back when it was the SPG biz has been cancelled.
This will finalize my reorganization of BonBlah cards, structuring our Chase Quinfecta UR cards and portfolio of hotel cards almost exactly to my ultimate goal. The only thing missing is an upgrade offer from our no fee Hilton cards to a second Aspire card for each of us. To be honest, I’m kinda glad it hasn’t happened yet and I’m not calling in for an upgrade offer either. Right now I need another FN cert with a $450 fee like I need a hole in the head. Well, that’s my churning news for this week. Hope everyone is doing well!
