Have we figured out if the spend was zeroed out on Jan 1? Or if leftover spend (under $5000) carries over? The terms say that you get 2 nights for every $5000 spent, nothing about exceptions if that $5000 is over multiple calendar years.

Data Point:

My statement closed Jan 20. I had about 2.2K dollars in spend on my WoH card since December 20th. On that Dec 20 statement, my rolling extra towards my next 2 nights was something close to 3-4K.

I got 2 EQDs posted to my account yesterday with my statement.

My guess (which matches my expectation) is that the 5K is just on a continuous roll. When you close a statement that exceeds that roll, you get credit then and there. Chase isn't going to split up spending between the years midcycle. My bet with the 15K/cat1-4 count is that it resets on your anniversary statement date.
