Open a PNC bank account and fund $2,000 using the CSR. It doesn't count as a cash advance but will count towards your $4k spend requirement

Don't you have to use your corporate card for travel?

Citi double cash

I thought the same thing. And I ended up spending 6k somehow

Put a couple of weeks of travel on your Sapphire Reserve, you'll get a polite email recommending not to weeks later, but you won't get in trouble. It's worth the points

Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?
