So it looks like we're not going to get lucky adding in tomorrow night. I'll keep checking the app all day, but if not, it's a quickie 2 night trip. He's the rest of the month, so maybe I can talk him into something else in the sunshine next week, LOL. And I get to escape all the snow we've gotten this week and are getting today. UGH!
So I hit my spend on the Venture X, and now the IHG I just got this week. But I still have about $4k in medical bills to pay. I hate to not have that go towards a spend. If I just got approved on 2/3 for the IHG, Chase isn't going to be nice about a Biz card, right? How long would I have to wait before trying w/ Chase? I was denied the IHG Biz card at the end of last year. But since then, I closed 1 CIC and 1 CIU (I think). I only have 1 CIP, 1 CIU and 1 CIC. I'd be open to doing the IHG Biz or an Ink card. I'd almost prefer an Ink card to float the balances as long as I can (so I can leave the money in savings and collect SOME interest on it still).
If I can't get any Chase Biz cards, is there any 0% biz card out there? Or any biz card worth doing? I'm not sure how Amex feels about me right now. I have all slots filled. So I'd have to close my Hilton Honors card. I got that for the SUB, but also hoping some day I might get an Aspire upgrade offer. I get offers to upgrade but never w/ an upgrade bonus.
With all that has been going on with my kiddos, it's hard for me to get excited about any trips away. Probably why we take such short ones now too. My daughter's fear of abandonment applies even to me going on trips. She's almost 20 now and lives w/ my mom and barely sees me (because she's in her own world, not because she doesn't like me, LOL). But the minute she knows I'm gone (because she's my cat feeder...they are "her" cats) she floods me with texts about how much she misses me. Of course as soon as I'm home....she doesn't see me or text, LOL. And my son has started to adopt some of this now

. But I'm hoping he's in a better place for this upcoming trip. I already have mom guilt when I fly without them (the fear I may leave them w/ only their dad, LOL). That isn't as bad when my BF is on the flights with me (I mean, he can run up and fly the plane, LOL). But my BF and I also need these moments to escape my (our) life when we can. Thank god for points!!!!
AFAIK the drinks are included but not unlimited. They do restock it daily, plus will bring 2 coronas (or a non-alcoholic beverage) in the afternoon along with the chips, salsa, and guacamole. They also stock bottled water. The hotel was at capacity last week, so I wouldn't count on getting another night but I'd keep checking. As said above, they do tend to drop rooms at the last minute.
@LilSweetPeaPhoto WA Cabo has February 16th avail for base room! Book and let us know if you grab it!
GAH! I missed it. I've been trying to search on and off daily for the drop! It did drop from 1.2 mill down to 800K for Sunday night, LOL. But our window to cash in on a trip tomorrow is closing FAST!
Has anyone driven or familiar with driving from Ft Lauderdale to Orlando or vice versa? Have a family
wedding to go next weekend. Originally planned on flying back next morning but decided to drive down
to WDW after wedding about 7-730 in rental. However looking at the map has me a bit apprehensive
driving this at night. Parts of the route look very desolate. With me are my kids and 21 yr old niece.
Driven this a couple times years ago during the DAY and it was pleasant.
We could wait until first thing in the morning (monday) but will miss rope drop and may hit traffic?.
Thoughts? Anyone driven this at night? thanks
I did the drive from Miami to Orlando....with my kids, alone, probably 7 years ago. Yeah, I didn't realize there are long stretches of nothing! And we were doing it at night. We made it though, LOL. I was more freaked out last summer when we had to drive home from NC because our flight cancelled (Delta meltdown). Those mountains at night! OMG! The twists and turns and the oncoming lights blinding you! Not fun!
