EXP is more valuable to me than Globalist. I just cancelled my Hyatt credit card yesterday. Globalist is great but most of the places I travel have Hampton Inns or Holiday Inn Express. Hilton Diamond does fine for me.

I fly about 70% out of PDX and 30% out of Eugene. If I stop worrying about limited accrual on lower AA fare classes maybe I’ll spend less time driving up to PDX, too PDX still seems to have taken more of the post-Covid cuts on nonstops than SEA. Without worrying about hitting my requal I guess I’d feel more free grabbing an EUG-OAK/SJC on WN or an EUG-DEN/ORD/SFO on UA when it was more convenient. It is sounding pretty liberating.
