Hello to my PMFs!
Thanks for your kind words, but we all learned from each other with our ideas in how to squeeze out the 'free' points.
2016 was a year of many changes, especially on the Amex landscape. The Chase Marriott has dropped the welcome Cat 1-4 e-certificate, but we are grateful that they gave us a couple of weeks of free hotel nites during our extended travels. The TDAVIs were for the most part still the same. The CIBC AeroBiz card was a super-pleasant surprise as a flowing source for a ton of points too. MBNA Alaska has been dampered but we're almost there for the EK-F shower plane. We also used up a bucket load of Best Western points, but MBNA were kind enough to let us replenish them fairly easily. We had another solid 10+ segment mini-RTW as well as mini-Euro, and of course all in Biz J. All in all it was a dynamic year for raking in, and splurging of the haul of points that we've amassed.
I have to admit that I benefited as much as anyone else by bouncing ideas off of each of you, and for that I extend a HUGE
THANK YOU, back to all of you, and a
MERRY XMAS SEASON to us all! Let's hope for another prosperous year of churning, for 2017!
