Thank you! I will call just in case. I agree it shouldn't be that big of a deal especially since I'm also staying in the room and will be present but I just don't want an overage of CP points on my card when he needs it more than I do.

We travel frequently with both our girls (2 and 5) and we have never had them sit in a car seat on the plane. we found it to be easier & more comfortable for them to sit in their own seat or on your lap (when they were under 2). I know some children love the comfort of their carseat and may nap better, etc. but we have fortunately not had to do that to get our girls through the flight.

Hi All, Newly converted SW customer. We decided to book a hotel stay for our upcoming trip to Anaheim. There were a large number of RR points for staying at a hotel that was one we liked. It was a prepaid stay unfortunately and I had booked it using my SW card & RR miles #. It allowed me to edit today my RR # (so I could update this to my husband's RR as I now don't need the points any longer to hit CP). Has anyone has experience with this? It isn't tied to my RR because I booked correct? I know when you're booking the stay it seems to say it must match the person who's room name it is under but I wasn't sure if that was true or if it doesn't matter since he's my spouse and we will both me staying in the room. Any advice on previous experience would be great. thanks!

hi, i had the same issue. my business card came a few days after my personal and didn't have my RR linked (was blank). I called Chase. they confirmed they had it on file on their end. I'm not sure why it wasn't printed on the card as well as i did list it during the application.

Dancing David - yes! That's what I was asking about. We have already mapped out 3 trips for 2019 due to the CP and being wcoast folks. And then possibly Hawaii when they launch. So personally crunching numbers for a living, I think the math calcs out that we will benefit from the CP but you're right by June or July we should either love it or hate it. I would love to keep earning it each year but I know it's hard to keep the spend up. Thanks for breaking it out clearer than I apparently was!

I think all the articles I've been reading have been more focused on those who open cards late in year and hit the min spend as calendar year flips. So I don't think it would apply to me. As for being able to hit 110K in 1 mo, I don't think it would work for me. Sign up bonus definitely helps towards that goal so it's not so painful. although we do live in Seattle and the few trips we are going to use the CP on this year will get us to the 110K easily using the hotel partners and our natural spend. We have been loyal Cap One Venture for the past 10 years and have averaged 80K spend with no bonus points. Just the 2x points they use. So if we had some hotel stays in Dec and early Jan we may be able to hit 110K but I don't think it'll be worth the effort. It's my first time using CP so I wanna make sure I don't make any rookie mistakes.

So then is it at all possible to time my 110K spend in 2019 to collect the points in 2020 or does that only work if you have the sign up bonus min spend in play? Every article I've read seems to say that close to year end window works but they all seem to say sign up bonus miles. Just trying to level set my expectations. 🙂

Hi New to SW and the companion pass. The current promo got me to finally sign up and switch. But I do have one small question. Since the initial spend will gift me the CP for all of 2019 but expire.. I'm trying to earn for 2020 and possibly 2021. I've read you can achieve this by booking close to end of the year but based on your statement close date. Can anyone confirm if that's possible or does it only work if you have a new offer signup with bonus points? I don't want to kill myself to get to 110K and realize that it would only work for 1 more hear. Any advice is appreciated.
