Ritz Carlton Approval

[CreditScholar]

The weight becomes a bit annoying after while though as you'll get comments on it practically every time. Now I only use it at places I regularly frequent, so for them it's no longer a novelty. It's a great card though, and it seems like you aren't the only one trading the Amex Plat for it.

I will mainly use it for rental cars and Marriott/Ritz stays.

Marriott points seem to have some value if used correctly. I am seeing locations where the points are worth over 1 cent each. Not too bad.

Save the Marriott points for the packages! Worth WAY more than 1 CPP!

Yes, you get miles for redeeming large packages. It's a great deal if you stay at Marriott/Ritz a lot since the points add up quick!

As much as I would love this card, I can't justify the $395 AF for my personal use. Especially since RC/Marriott is not the hotel brand I usually stay at. If possible I would love to see some pics of the packaging! I love when cards get the proper package experience.
