Should I use Chase UR to book from price point?
If you have Chase Sapphire Reserve, each point is easily worth 1.5 cents with pay yourself back. 8,200 * $0.015 = $123
If you only value Chase points at face value of 1 cent then it's 8,200 * $0.01 = $82
IHG often sells points with 100% bonus which ends up being 0.5 cents per point. 22,000 * $0.005 = $110
