Regarding holding more than one of these IHG cards, what are the known rules / hurdles around holding more than one? My understanding, last time I read up on this, was you could not hold both Traveler and Premier versions at the same time; is that true? Can you obtain the Business version while already holding the Traveler or Premier, or vice versa, obtain the personal version while holding the business version? My biggest regret was closing my Premier (?) card during the early days of Covid, unjustified crowd-think led to me closing Hyatt and IHG cards.
