1) Bilt Dining (if you use an Amex Gold which would get 4x MR vs 3x Bilt points)
Thanks! I've already linked Lyft (which earns two points per dollar that I can forget transfer to Alaska, instead of one Alaska point per dollar). I typically use CSR for dining (2 ppd which are worth a net off 3 cents) so I'll have to do the math to see if it's worth getting the actual CC. I imagine it is if it gets me out of the fee for paying for my building.
