My possible upcoming churn:
US Air - Barclays
Hawaiian - BOH
Hawaiian - BOA
Alaskan - BOA
Cont. OnePass - Chase
Hilton - Citi
Hilton - Amex
AA - Citi Biz
I have/closed:
SPG personal
SPG bus. (closed)
AA pers. Visa
AA pers. Amex
BA
I have 160,000 SPG, but would like some points in other hotel programs. I'd like Marriott, but want to get Cont before it's gone. Should I go for 2 chase apps? Are there any I should add or lose?

If you apply for two chase cards at the same time, the second one will be flagged as a duplicate, and you will have to call to sort it out regardless.

Everyone's situation is different but I was able to convince them I NEEDED the Pref. Sapphire card with little effort.With Chase you have a better chance of success if you wait 60+ days between apps. in my experience. But too many TOTAL hard pulls can disqualify you too.

Nobody can say for sure. I wouldn't apply for two at once. Apply for the CO & then the Marriott about 60 days later. If you are denied the Marr. card you can call & tell them why you REALLY need it.

I've gotten approved for two chase cards that I applied for on the same day. What you need when you call is a legitimate reason for having both. In my case, it was the UA card and the CO card. I simply stated I flew both airlines, and until the merger, I wanted both cards as I wanted to keep my expenses seperated. I also was able to get the BA card and Sapphire card later on within 2 months of each other.
