Use Bonvoy Brilliance $300 Credit Without Travel?
My Amex Bonvoy Brilliance credit will be expiring at the end of Feb and currently, I don't have any travel plans until May (still pending). I don't want to book a prepaid hotel stay and risk having to cancel and lose the money. Are there other ways to use the credit besides gift cards? Also, are there any DP on recent successful gift card purchases? The last successful gc purchase I saw in the reimbursement thread was from May 2020.
Thank you.
Thank you.
