Best Use of the $300 Amex Platinum Hotel Credit: Bellagio Las Vegas (Part 2)

I intentionally didn’t book a more expensive room there because I wanted to use the remaining credit for an extra night at another Fine Hotels + Resorts property. And with that, we’re off to the Bellagio. Related

Casino Status Match Run (Part 4): Book Your Atlantic City Trip
The next big step in the Casino Status Match Run is to book your Atlantic City flights, transportation, and hotels. If you want to play it safe, you'll want to book everything after you've secured your Wyndham Diamond and Caesars Diamond statuses.

This is because the credit card automatically gives you Wyndham Diamond status which you'll use to status match to other programs. This was interesting for me since I've never opened an account with Barclays before and I heard it could be a hassle especially if this is your

Chase Sapphire Reserve and Ikon Pass has a 20% discount right now if you haven't bought your season ski pass for the 2024-2025 season! Not going to lie though, I'm pretty annoyed by this. I bought my pass at full price back in the beginning of October because Ikon was advertising that prices were going up so I decided to pull the plug.
