I received an email about Chase upping the welcome bonus for the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. Even if I wanted to do that, they wouldn't approve me because I would violate their 5/24 rule.

The greatest travel hacking guide you need for a stress-free trip

If you’re a traveler, you’ll want to learn all the travel hackings you can get to make your trip memorable and stress-free

I have built up over 346k credit card points over four cards so far this year. This weekend, I figured out a way to grab 2k more while grabbing additional points at a 3x rate. Once I'm done with this trip, I need to move the credit limits for two of those cards and close them.

I'm trying to track the five places I have loyalty points and miles, and I think that might be a good justification for a spreadsheet.

I know that 2.25 cents per point is a good deal, but this feels expensive.

That is a really good deal for a business class seat from Chicago to Tokyo.

"The way I’m looking at it, this card will give us over $2,255 in value even after the annual fee… that’s a substantial win! That doesn’t count the other benefits like Apple TV+ and the Lyft credits, which we’ll be sure to take advantage of, too."

Why I Got the Chase Sapphire Reserve... Even With Its $795 Fee - Route to Retire

We think we'll be able to get just over $3,000 of value from the Chase Sapphire Reserve card- and that's aside from the fringe benefits it has!

Route to Retire

I'm up to 109,977 CSP points, 87,182 United Miles, 30,000 Hyatt Bonus Rewards, and 102,218 Venture X miles. (It's the power of the Welcome Bonus.) By the end of the year, I want to get Hyatt up to 60,000 and then I should be able to cover hotels on the CSP and Hyatt points and cover airfare on the other two for two weeks in Japan. I'm travel-hacking the shit out of my 2026 trip.
