Does the 8% still make sense though if you get 5X AMEX MR points for buying the ticket?
So is 8% + 1 SPG pt/dollar better than 5x AMEX MR. I’d say it’s a wash, but then I’m committed to WN gift cards.
I would say it is a wash. Up to you as to how much you would value the MR points. When these gift cards are on sale for 10% off, that makes it a bit easier. But they never like making things easy for us, do they? 🙂
