Depends on the value you place on each point. 2x on Amex SPG, 3x on CSR. The CSR is by far the better everyday card and I would consolidate all expenses onto that one. It's difficult to justify an annual fee card for a hotel, and another for an airline, and another for dining. Do CSR for a hassle-free life.

I would use SPG for the hotel and CSR for everything else. That's what I do, at least. Good to diversify your points a bit and Marriott/SPG has many more hotel options abroad than Hyatt, which is the only decent hotel transfer partner for UR.

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA

I don’t think I have enough YOE to go for a program architect role at SF otherwise I’d be interested.
