Are automobile expenses (insurance, property tax, etc.) considered "travel" for CIP?
Where did you all stay? I haven't done enough research to really know where we want to stay.

My advice is stay. in. the. park. You will not regret it with all the time you will save in driving. Everything is far apart and with the wildlife, you do not want to be driving in the dark.Where did you all stay? I haven't done enough research to really know where we want to stay.
Coded as travel on Chase Sapphire Reserve. The CSR/CSP do not have a foreign transactions fee, I have used David's a couple of times and never seen one. I can't be positive on the insurance.Does anyone know how credit card payments made to David's DVC Rental code?
Also, I was chatting with them and since they're based in Canada they mentioned a "cross border transaction fee" that may apply based on the card being used. Anyone ever experience that?
ETA: Looking at using a CSP and was wondering if knows if the trip cancellation insurance would cover DVC rental cancellation due to hurricane?
This might be a nice way to use the $75 travel credit from the Priority card and convert to points.
It should count.

Enjoy your trip....we haven’t traveled since our February visit in Orlando to see our son.I've decided to go to the beach this weekend.
Tired of staying in and made a reservation at the Hyatt. Got a little twisted up making, canceling and remaking the reservation as I was trying to figure how to work some Marriott free nights into my visit, but Marriott had me blocked on the 35's, and I wasn't quite ready to drop my 50. (Charging 40k on the nights I wanted.) I may still get it if they reduce the cost as I've seen it happen over this summer. They are constantly reworking the points to follow occupancy, which is great strategy on their part.
They have a JW Marriott in Bonnet Creek that is 50K, and I was thinking I might drop in there for a night or two in January or February. So I stashed the 50k for a minute. That may be my first Florida trip. I've still got November nights that I don't want to let loose, but it's probably going to happen. Have considered renting my BWV SV reservation that starts Oct 31, but will probably just cancel as my points are not in trouble.
As far as the beach trip Air Forcer Thunderbirds will be preforming and my balcony should put me centered on the action, and properly socially distanced. They will fly over the water in front of my hotel. There will be other flight demos also, so lots of noise. This program got itself rescheduled and I'm actually surprised it is happening. But, believe it or not, I will enjoy watching the action. The only thing better for me would be Blue.
And, Hyatt has a promo that will give me 25% of my points back.
I now have to figure out how to have a safe baby shower for my daughter...
So glad you were able to catch it early!@babecca1 @afan
Thank you for your advice with the credit freeze. Apparently someone applied for a small business loan in DH’s name. Fortunately I caught it in time and he was able to terminate the application. Had I not been looking at his credit report that could have been a potential nightmare. He placed the freeze while on the phone with Experian and I just did the other two. Super easy like you said. Also it appears that the inquiry has already fallen off Experian since he disputed it this morning. I’m grateful it all worked out for us. 2020 has been something else

Ok! Thank you! I’ll do that. Appreciate your helpYou should freeze his chex report too
Yes, My mom didn’t have a SW RR acct so I set one up for her. I entered her confirmation number Into the travel funds section and It pulled up the $ amount of her credit. I then converted $252 to 19k RR. Since she no longer wants to travel and I paid for her flight initially, I’ll book a couple of future flights for myself using the points since they can be used by anyone. This was a much better option than being stuck with $ travel funds she would never use.Do the points have to go in the name of the travel credit holder's RR account? I have funds for each of my kids due to a cancelled WDW trip, but none of them have a RR account. I would have to sign up each of them? Wondering if it's worth the hassle to manage 3 extra accounts.
