I now have 6k Tier credits ( another offer I recieved was to spend $500 get 1k TC) so I should actually make Diamond for 2026
Yeah wish I saw that offer!
One of my life hacks is figuring out crew hotels because the usually mean great upgrades for elites.
The Westin in Vegas is great for this, and is close to Ellis Island which has great BBQ & beer.
Off-price hotels I like in central Vegas include:
•Hyatt Place (across from Virgin Hotel and near the Hoffbrau Haus)
•Townplace Suites off of Tropicana (nice pool, and close to In-N-Out + the south strip casinos. Better breakfast than the Hampton across the street )
•Fairfield Inn on Paradise (cheaper than the Westin and free mediocre breakfast.)
