Hertz gold rewards or SPG points? What is worth more during car rentals?

You mean.. is one Hertz point or one Starwoods point with more?

Yes, spg has partnered with hertz and you can get 200 spg points per rental.

So, I would argue the Hertz points are much more valuable. However, I live in NYC and don't own a car, so the ability to get free rentals is huge for me, especially because NYC car rental prices are extortionate. However, if you don't rent cars for personal you might take the SPG points. In NYC, I would estimate that Hertz points are worth around 7 cents each, which is much more valuable than SPG points.

Sounds good. I am travel always, so thinking to sell my car. I live in Atlanta though.

I do hertz and stay in Marriotts
Rent every week
It’s cool I guess lol

It can depend on the type of cars that you would rent. If you go for specialty classes (e.g. minivans, etc.) the Hertz points are really valuable. Consider that it costs only 2x the points for that kind of car even though it can cost 4x or more than a regular rental if you paid cash

I fly delta, stay with spg and rent with Hertz every week in Atlanta. They three have solid bonuses by linking all the accounts together and president circle when you hit Platinum with Delta is great

Looking to choose a place to fly out of for getting my PPL. Would you recommend a program based out of a controlled or uncontrolled airport? It sounds like you get more flight time out of the uncontrolled (less busy), but less experience liaising with ATC. Both options are comparable cost-wise and about the same distance from my house.

I worked as a technical PM for a medium-sized adtech company in NYC in charge of 2 technical teams, and the business intelligence team.

On Thursday I was informed by the lead Product Owner and the head of HR that leadership had decided that the project management office was no longer necessary for the company and all three of us, the director and the two technical PMs, were being let go. None of us were given any notice.

If you know of any opportunities I can apply for, please reach out.
