On this episode Shawn and Joe discuss the headaches that can be associated with booking awards. Joe’s recent booking included misinformation, strange phone numbers hangups and a lot of patience. Was it worth it?
Other topics discussed include: the true value of the Chase Sapphire Reserve, Hyatt’s tricky new Bonus Journeys promotion and Alaska’s sudden devaluation that adds to a list of recent painful announcements.
