When I run the numbers, the breakeven point for the Green vs BBP spend is $12,000 (assuming all Green spend is 3X and MR point value = 1.25 cents). Anything more the Green is better, anything less BBP. This does not take into account the Lounge Buddy or CLEAR credits.
Yeah airline spending goes on the Platinum. If I cancel the Green, I might just upgrade the Sapphire card back to the CSP mainly to unlock Chase’s specific transfer partners, especially Hyatt. In that case, the BBP will become a nonspecific category spend card with the Pen Fed Visa serving as a backup.
