Off topic, but be careful you’re not double counting. People sometimes do that with CC AF’s. Either deduct the airline credit from the AF or count it toward AL+/travel.
Ex: “My CSR AF is net $250 after the $300 travel credit.” Then months later thinking of a $300 flight as “free” due to the same credit being applied.
I find counting CC credits toward the AF an easier way to monitor which cards I should keep/close.
