Well I gotta eat some crow as the details trickle out.

I was already planning to cancel even before the fee hike but I now see the new AF doesn’t kick in until 2026 and my next AF posts in November. So I guess I will squeeze one more year from the card.
  • $400 resy credits (just used $150 tonight/split on 2 cards)
  • $200 Airline (easily done in January)
  • $200 Uber/eats (a PITA)
  • $300 Lulu (also a PITA)

My kids will be happy to have another year of lounge access when they travel solo
