Thank you for the suggestion. I have to look more into Hotels.com. I had always been under the impression that they catered to the less expensive hotels, rather than the resort-type locations that I would try to build towards. If I'm wrong, that's great!

Looking into the Capital One suggestion you made, the Venture card looks like a great compliment to Hotels.com. But we don't know if this partnership is going to be renewed next year, right? Maybe I'll hold off a couple of months and see how things shake out.
