New Amex statement credits

Naturally, just after I booked with them last night. Guess I'll be trying to cancel and re-book now.
I never pre-pay AVIS.

Which worked well for a rental in NZ. Even after the 3% forex fee (I’d usually use 28° MC), I was still a decent amount of $s ahead with a similar offer that included NZ (the current one doesn’t by the looks).
 
Disappointed in the VA Holidays (by Hopper) Offer. I was hoping for an offer for the Hotels. Last year was $500/$150. And there was an adjacent VA flight offer then too. This years Amex "travel promo" not nearly as enticing 😢

Yeah, I should have done the same. Went to cancel and realised they want to slug me a $82.50 cancellation fee. Transaction still shows as pending, so I might wait and see if I'm lucky enough to score the 25% back over the next few days. Otherwise, I'll do my sums and see if it's worth cancelling and rebooking. Either way, lesson learned.
