Where are the good point promotions? Spg (soon), Hyatt recently just ended and those were lame. Anyone know good ones going on or starting relatively soon? Interested in rental and air promotions, too.

Spg was recently at 35k welcome bonus. Wait for that to pop up again. Assuming you don't have a specific redemption in mind: I'd go with the Chase Sapphire reserve if you haven't already had it. Then probably the Marriott personal and Marriott business, since Chase won't approve you if you have had more than 5 inquiries in the past 24 months (Google 5/24 rule). Once you've exhausted chase I'd start hitting Amex and accumulating MR with the PRG, Platinum, BRG, etc.

Can you use personal credit card? That's the first question before I answer

Assume yes

Hyatt should be announced in the coming weeks and be retroactive. I'm going for some sort of targeted qualifying nights promo too since 60 is starting to seem like a lot. I've wasted 20 nights at Marriotts this year and will struggle to get Globalist and SPG Platinum.
