combine points
Guys
I have to make a reservation for 3 nights (50k pts each night)
However, I have 80k pts in my account while my wife has another 80k. Is it possible to combine points to make this reservation or do they allow inter-spousal transfer of points?
Also, how long till Chase usually provides the free anniversary night? Is it right on the anniversary date?
Thx

Result cost=$140 + 130K points, 30K points balance left
Slightly cheaper is one to transfer 20K to the other at cost of $100. now you can book 2x 50K rooms by one and 1x 50K room the other.
Result cost=$100 + 150K points, 10K points balance left
Issue is that xfer of points is (to my knowlege) not immediate so if you are unlucky, by time points arrive, award night may be sold out.
Either way impossible to do cost free, so much better to spend $40 extra and keep extra 20K points in your balance.

My wife got hers about a month after paying the annual fee. She was hoping to get it before the annual fee was up so she could cancel the card... but I reminded her that $49 for a night stay at a IC is cheap (we stayed at Bertchesgaden (sp?))
