The Chase travel credit does not make your Disney trip any less expensive.....because you will get $300 from Chase whether you go or not.
Unless some people still mistakenly think this is "free" money, not realizing this is just a return of their own money (paying the annual fee)... That is why we have discussed at the very beginning when the card is first introduced, why the banks like to use all sorts of "credits" to offset the annual fee versus a card with the net annual fee but without those "credits"... Marketing ploy is powerful, not to mention the potential breakage. (think about the Doordash junk credit)
