My Latest Credit Cards

Recently, I posted about how I’ve made 2 million miles and points. Obviously, credit cards were the biggest source. A few times a year, I apply for another batch. Here’s my latest results:

  • Ritz Carlton card from Chase. 70,000 points. Approved.
  • American Airlines card from Citibank. 50,000 miles. Approved.
  • Delta Skymiles card from American Express. 35,000 miles. Approved.
  • Alaska Airlines card from Bank of America. 25,000 miles. My second time getting this card. Approved.

400,000 Hilton Points In 5 Steps

  1. Apply for the Hawaiian Airlines cards here and here. When you get your 35,000 miles on each card, transfer them to Hilton for 140,000 points.
  2. Apply for the 50,000-point Hilton Visa here
  3. Apply for the 50,000-point Hilton American Express here
  4. In a few months, you’ll get an email to upgrade your Amex to a Surpass card for another 50,000 points. 
  5. Assuming you apply for all the cards in Steps 1 through 3 on the same day, wait another 3 months and apply for the Virgin Amex here. After you collect your 50,000 miles, transfer them to Hilton for 100,000 points.
There you go. In 5 easy steps, that’s approximately 400,000 Hilton points after spending and bonuses. In another few months, you’ll be able to “churn” the cards in Steps 1 and 5. Dream vacation, here you come!
