Difference between Virtuoso and AMEX FHR/Chase LHR for hotels?
This may be a stupid question, but what is the difference between working with an advisor from Virtuoso and booking directly with my credit card program (AMEX Fine Hotels and Resorts and Chase Luxury Hotels and Resorts)? I understand that at least for Chase's program, it's the Signature Travel Network via Connexions Loyalty. The additional benefits seem to be the same in terms of perks. Am I missing out by booking rooms myself?
