So probably not. 3 of these were with a Chase Bonvoy card and 2 were with an Amex Bonvoy card. The 1 time I got 6x back was with the Chase (and it was also a STARS booking, not sure if that was the difference maker).

Probably better to just book with a card that codes for general travel or through something like FHR.
