Thanks mrkymark and CVG_KID. Linked accounts and all is good now. The flights I found on ITA did not show up when I searched the CTY site, but called in and had no problem booking. They even quoted the same fare I found, which has not always been my experience.

obviously depends on the day job. To make 4x my day job you'd need to be doing $50k a day at 5% clear across the board. I'd rather stick with the day job. Plus the future career prospects are not great

Wouldn't consider MS as a day job either, just extra $ for travel expenses...we have a horrible addiction to travel However, I doubt many of us here are making the $650k a year you claim, or substantially more if you are talking net income.

At 261 working days per year (365 - 104 weekend days), the poster would be making $163,125 (625x261). And that's assuming no fees. Once you add in VR fees and liquidation fees, you'd be clearing even less than $2,500 on 50k spend.
Not sure why you think he's claiming to make $650k/year.

I've gotten 2 exec cards and 1 prestige just in the past 3 months.
I would recommend against NOT applying for cards you have a fancy for.

Has CVS stopped the purchase of VR with credit cards?

That's all I am going to say. For more, come to the CLT DO --oh wait tickets are sold out.

A lot has changed for me in the past several months. I have pushed my TYP to levels many thought not possible. I have access to 3 BB and 1 HR card. That said, the use of VR in my world only accounted 1/21th of my TYP spend for last month.

I got tix for the DO, but no plane tix. This AA/US merger didn't work out exactly the way I planned. Very limited availability on ba.com from NYC. And limited options for tix on the TY website. I need pretty specific times. Am I gonna actually have to pay for them? UGH!
