Has anyone been to the Centurion lounge in ATL? My mom and I are flying out Friday after DD's graduation and will probably have some time to kill. I think we're both flying out of Concourse A. I know we'd have to take the train to Concourse E. Just wondering how big an inconvenience this would be since my mom is 81 and traveling is a lot for her.

I haven't been to the Centurion lounge in ATL, but I frequently travel through that airport and switching Concourses is a breeze via the Plane Train. I usually go to the flagship Delta lounge in Concourse D, regardless of where I'm flying out of and it takes me less than 20 minutes to get from lounge to gate once I'm finished.

If I have a chase offer on a freedom for 8% back on vivid seats, but I pay via PayPal using that freedom will I get both the 5% for PayPal and the % back for the offer?

I was there earlier in the year, shortly after it opened. I don't remember what concourse I flew out of but I don't remember it being a huge hassle. I LOVED the whiskey bar inside, had the best old fashioned.

So SW used to have a lot of flights from Richmond to Atlanta which was great with my daughter in college in Atlanta. Those seem pretty much gone now but that seems to make Southwest useless for me to get to Fort Myers since now they want to send me up to BWI or MDW to connect instead of ATL. I guess I'll look at other airports in FL or other airlines.

Just called Barclays to see what was happening with my application under review. CSR asked me what I do for a living (said Homemaker), asked how the income was arrived at, said it was dh's; he asked what dh did for a living and how long he's been in the role. All was fine, then he checked my "bureaus", said everything was fine, I was approved for a card with $30k limit and I'd have the card in 7-10 days! This card was too good to pass up!

Anyone here been to either Panama and/or Colombia? We are planning a Panama trip in March and might add a few nights in Cartagena as well if it's worth it.

I love Cartagena, the old walled-city is so well preserved and beautiful, as is the impressive Spanish Castle/Fort. Its a lively place, too.

Not sure if you were offering GoH at a Hyatt property before the end of the year. I have a stay at the Thompson Central Park tomorrow night enroute to London and I'd love 1, if there are any available!

Oh, I only have club access awards. Could you use that?

Since they don't have trackers like Chase, how do you verify and/or track your MSRs with Amex? I have a Surpass with a 6 month MSR period that I have been slow rolling so I can have the longest amount of time to use my FNC. But I'd really like to know the exact MSR date so I don't miss it.

Data Point - Have the BOA Premium Rewards Elite Card. Which comes with $300 in Incidental Airline Fees each calendar year. So, trying to figure out how to use these. All our trips coming up already have free luggage or already paid for luggage. Don't fly AA so the travel bank really wouldn't do much good. Kept checking some upcoming flights for upgrades - finally got one that worked.

DD and I are flying to Disney this Saturday to Tuesday on Delta. The flight home I was able to upgrade us to 1st Class for $138 per person. Then DD used an extra bag fee for her trip home today from Vancouver, seeing Taylor Swift. BOA already credited the 2- $138 Credits - just upgraded on 12/3 and credited 12/7. Just glad able to use the credit.

Going to use the $150 Lifestyle credit for Uber/Lyft to and from the Airport to Hotel. If anything left then will use it on Door Dash.

DD made good use of the Priority Pass benefit I was able to give her with this card. Had a few delayed flights and her and her friends were able to use some lounges.

This might be a keeper card for me.

If I have a chase offer on a freedom for 8% back on vivid seats, but I pay via PayPal using that freedom will I get both the 5% for PayPal and the % back for the offer?

When I have used PayPal, Chase offers have still successfully credited. Just this month I double dipped my PayPal Q4 5% with an eBay and a Dell loaded offer. Both have paid.

There is a lounge at the Thompson, so should be able to!

DH couldn't pass up the Barclay's AA offer. Instant approval. Yeah more AA miles. I had already signed up a month or two ago.

 

[NewbieMom]

Got approved for Delta Gold Biz, Delta Platinum Biz, Barclays AA and Southwest Performance Business all in the last month!

Has anyone tried using these links? When I tried to use it, it automatically fills in the last name and Delta # with someone else's info. The box is grayed out and doesn't let me edit with my info.

Edited to remove links to avoid confusion since they are targeted.

I thought AMEX liked me. Approval for BBP; sent me a pre-approval offer for Plat Bus. But when I find the 250K MR offer they put me in PUJ. Uggh. I'll keep trying.

Normally how long does it take to get credits for Southwest upgraded boardings? I need to cancel DW's Southwest Priority card by the end of December since the AF hit on December 1st. We have a flight on Christmas Day. If I'm able to get us upgraded on December 24th would I see the credit in time to cancel the card? I would be canceling via SM. If I had to I could call and get her to tell them to talk to me but she doesn't like doing that so SM is the preferred method of communication for her cards.

Amex loves my wife and hates me. She currently holds two biz platinums and two biz golds. They give her crazy offers like they're candy. I can't get a single bonus for anything.
