Book a hotel that is AMEX FHR through platinum and get 5x points + perks (lucky upgrade, $100 credit) or book the same hotel through capital one venture x and get 10x points? 🤔

What’s the points difference? Kind of a crucial piece to give you an answer… $100 is 500 pts vs 1000 pts.

Responded below!

I’d go with AMEX and cash out the credit first.

Will you utilize the 4PM late Checkout, I Daily Breakfast, Room Upgrade, and Property Credit? Depends on that value for you.

8000 point difference! No on the late checkout- the only thing I would hope for is the room upgrade because the upgraded rooms are amazing + maybe spa with the $100 credit. Beach resort in Phuket (Thailand)

Roll the dice on the upgrade if we’re talking bungalows / splash pool situation.

Depends if you need to use your FHR credit or not
