I love credit cards so much! v7.0 - 2025 (see first page for add'l details)

Recommendations for Los Cabos?
1. Does anyone have a reliable airport transfer that you've used before and reasonably priced?
2. Rec for a good whale watching tour? Preferably kid-friendly. This is on my kids' #1 to-see list.
I used Cabo Airport Transfer in 2022 and would recommend them. The cost was US$135 (including tolls) each direction in a large black SUV.
 
With the new CSR benefits, we're expecting that on 10/26 we'll be able to register (or whatever the correct terminology is) for the stubhub credit, correct? I want to buy Back to the Future tickets (Broadway in Richmond) so this is on my list to do next Sunday. I also have an Ink statement closing 10/23 so I need to transfer those points as soon as they post.
Yes, that is the reported date that we can register for the new benefits.
 
I'm thinking of app'ing for the new Citi Globe today. Any recent datapoints on how fast the cards from Citi come (or if they can be expedited)? We are leaving the country in about 10 days, and I'd want it in time for that trip since it has no foreign trans fees.

I could use 4 admirals passes for this same upcoming trip, and then 4 more for a trip in August 2026, so that's an easy benefit to max out. Thinking of the inflight credits, could we use $100 in wifi and snacks on our upcoming trip (two flights, one is only 2 hours, one 4 hours)? Might be difficult since we usually get free inflight wifi through our Tmobile plan. Maybe DH would want a beer or two... and I could get some tiny liquors to make it extra fun, lol. And I could *possibly* use the splurge credit for LiveNation before the end of year to upgrade some concert tix to better seats. Then I'm sure I could use it again next year when it resets, as we attend a lot of concerts. I could potentially also use the $100 inflight credits again for our trip next August.

The 90k miles are enticing, and I'd pay a $100 AF for those alone with no extra perks. I'd probably also value the lounge passes at $100. So will I be able to get an additional $150 value out of the card to make the AF make sense? It'll be close for me, probably just because I won't use most of the benefits, like Global Entry/Precheck credit (as we have that on other cards), Turo credit, or Companion Pass (as we always use miles, never cash), and the inflight credit, I'll probably be using it JUST to use it. I wouldn't normally buy drinks/snacks on a flight.

It’s certainly looks like a good deal for you. I don’t know how fast the cards can get to you or if you’ll be able to use Apple Pay Google play overseas if it doesn’t come.
