Transferring points to Hyatt or booking Hyatt through Ultimate Rewards has been great. I have the Freedom card and Freedom Flex. This quarters category’s are restaurants and hotels. It stacks so I am getting 7% when I eat out. Do you earn points on your Freedom Flex that you can transfer to your CSR or is it just cash back? I might have to look into getting that card as well to maximize my points even further! Edited April 5 by JamieLogical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're often looking for trip cancelation insurance for trips that fit within the $10K person/ $20K maximum limit, it's a great solution. These limits fit the needs of much of my travel, and in those rare instances where it doesn't, I can either buy an additional policy or self-insure the excess. Where if falls short is medical (and possibly evacuation) coverage. As mentioned, $2,500 is really inadequate for covering all but the most basic medical incidents. Therefore if you don't have a health insurance policy that covers out-of-country care (note: while Medicare does not, some Medicare Advantage policies do), it's wise to purchase medical coverage for international travel. I've used GeoBlue. These policies typically offer $500K - $1M evacuation coverage whereas CSR is only $100K. So I find CSR to be a great solution for my trip cancelation needs, and since I've gotten a Medicare Advantage policy that covers me during international travel - I'm pretty much set. Plus the points I've earned are very nice too🙂 Thanks for the trip cancellation part of CSR. I also have regular trip insurance. I have an issue regarding mobility that really could make travel brutal. I'l try to do PT and make it but if not do you think CSR easier than the one I have booked through USAA. TIA.

To be honest, I haven't looked into how CSR handles pre-existing conditions. I (fortunately) don't have that concern (yet). Hopefully, someone here can chime in.

Hopefully, someone here can chime in. From what I understand, if the injury/illness occurred after buying the insurance then you're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
