$200 credit for Hotels.

I don't think that is accurate?

You are correct. I got confused with the Fine Hotels + Resorts Terms and Conditions. Thanks for catching that.

Damn, and I thought my wife's 150K point bonus on her personal platinum card was huge. This would give me almost 1 million Amex points. What the hell would I do with that! Peace


Just one other important detail from what I see. You need to spend 15K on the card in the first three months. Pretty high in my opinion.

Open an Amex checking and cash out the million points. Ten thousand dollars!

Yeah, I got the 150k for the personal plat as well. Nearing 600k points for me after I get this bonus

Spending I think is pretty reasonable. Most higher end biz cards have around 10k spend to get the bonus. This bonus is about double most others

Nah, it's worth way more than that. With some planning and flexibility, that's worth a dozen business class trips. If you average $4,000 for a ticket, that's at least $45,000+ in award travel.

Go anywhere in the world in luxury, that's how I've been using my points. The presumption is of course one wants to travel in luxury.

Just got the 150k on the personal account. Debating whether to get this or not. I'm not a huge fan of MR points. Much prefer Chase and I was going to sign up for another Chase Sapphire Reserve, but waiting for that to get back up to at least an 80k sign up bonus. Decisions, decisions.

Assuming you can comfortably do the spend, why would you not? Esp since it's a biz card and doesn't count against your 5/24 total.

That's true. I might. I have just had a hard time using mr in the past. For my travel habits they don't work well. I did use a good chunk of mr for transfer to Avianca to use in Lufthansa but that's not a common travel partner for me.

I've refreshed a dozen times in incognito mode and don't see anything better than 120,000 miles...
