How would you use 60,000 points?
Unpopular opinion, the CSP is the most overrated credit card on the market after the freedom/freedom flex and freedom unlimited refreshes. Then could get CSR after and potentially get greater value with extra perks + same perks that the CSP and transfer UR points from freedom flex or freedom unlimited 🤷♂️
This is interesting to know. I hope to definitely do some more traveling in the near future so I am going to look more into these reward cards. This was very helpful!
I will check out the Sapphire Preferred. Sounds like a nice card.
We’ll look at this card when we start traveling again. Maui would be the island because that’s where my dad is from. Then Oahu next because that’s where my mom is from! 🤙🏼 Thanks for the tips!
Hi there! Subbed to your channel. Was recommended by Kelly at Maysam Adventures! Excited to check out your channel!
Excited to watch your content… new sub here, sent over by Kelly at Maysam Adventures!
I've never used Chase rewards for travel. Interesting…
We are similar to you… we've flown to the UK for free using miles… about 20 times! I've been using miles to travel since 1992 (even longer than you… yes I am THAT old!!! LOL).
Because we live in Dallas, we can fly ANYWHERE on American Airlines, so we have always used Citibank AAdvantage cards. And for hotels, Chase Marriott Rewards. I'm pretty brand loyal to American and Marriott.
As for Hawaii, I would go to Maui… because my best friend from high school lives there and I can stay for free. Haha, even better than Marriott points 😉
As a traveler this here is something good to no thank you so much for the information I will look into it .
I would want free airline trips. I need to travel more
I haven’t traveled much and this video helped a lot for when the time comes 👌🏾🌸
Oh wow! This amazing hacks here I gotta get started here and travel somewhere.
Wow just mind blowing!!! Never knew there are so many ways to get more and more points!! Thanks to you for always sharing important information! 💕💕💕
Man I would take a nice trip to Bali or something with 60k points on a card. I just really wanna go somewhere exotic.
Omg I never thought about the chase sapphire preferred card being a great beginner card. But it is! I used to have it (not any more) and it was great! This was a great video. And that’s a great point to make sure you check the airline before transferring points because you can’t transfer them back!
wow.. this is great to know.. Thank you sis for sharing these tips🥰
