After you get the Brilliant Card (but not before), you might want to consider a product change of your Chase Marriott to the Ritz-Carlton Card at $450, which will give you a $300 airline credit (which is relatively easy to use compared to American Express), and an 85,000 point certificate each year (which you can top up with up to 15,000 points). You also get 3 Club Lounge upgrade certificates for the Ritz-Carlton, but not sure if those would be useful to you, if you mostly stay at mid-tier hotels.
