I know some of us collect SPG (Sheraton hotel family) points, from credit card bonuses and hotel stays. These are valuable points both for hotel redemptions and AGR transfers. The only drawback is the points expire if you don't have any account activity for a while. SPG is sponsoring a trivia...

http://www.continental.com/web/en-US/content/products/chase/continental.aspx?&offer=OPP50 This is a good deal if you've got the credit score for it, and have never had a Continental credit card before. Continental transfers to AGR 1:1 for now, anyway. No fee for the first year, and you can...

Hi, I am considering redeeming 15K points from Kansas City through Chicago to Detroit, with a roomette on the SW Chief, for myself and a companion. I understand the Wolverine has no sleeper cars, but we would be put into business class on the Wolverine? Since it has no dining car, is there a...

I realize Chase & AGR give bonus points for signup based on some secret algorithm :lol: I applied last fall for the AGR MC when my bonus offer was 18K, but was turned down because I had received a different Chase card within 6 months. Now, the offer I have on my AGR page is only 12K. Is...

Hi, I'm planning on traveling Norman OK to San Antonio. Assuming all is on time, we should have an hour's layover before boarding the TE in Fort Worth. Is there anywhere to eat lunch within walking distance of the Ft Worth station? Also, how do we handle luggage. Norman is an unstaffed...

Did I wait to long to do the refer-a-friend? Is the promo gone?

Wow. If you need to top off your account for a trip, look at the AGR shopping mall. Magazines.com is 25 points/$1. Guess what DH is getting for Christmas :lol:

Help! I"m not seeing Walmart on the AGR web site. The shopping is by categories instead of all one list. Was it dropped? If not, where do you see it?

When will the AGR shopping mall be back open? I need to get my Walmart points :giggle:

I'm looking to travel from an unstaffed station in November. I'd like to reserve now, to get the low bucket price. But, since the travel is from an unstaffed station, the only options for delivery listed on the website is snail mail or express mail. Is there a way to purchase tickets today...

Hi, has anyone used the Coupon Connection at Flyertalk.com? Flyertalk is a frequent flyer message board, mostly dedicated to accumulating and using frequent flyer miles, as well as other travel topics. After you have been there 90 days and have 90 substantive posts, you gain access to a forum...

I am considering driving to OKC to take the Heartland Flyer south. We might stay at a downtown hotel the night before, since it leaves in the morning. Does anyone have ideas for cheap, safe parking in that area? I might be leaving my car for about a week. Thanks.

I bought 1 cash ticket (adult) and redeemed for 3 AGR points tickets (1 adult + 2 kids) on the Missouri River Runner. Tickets have been issued from Independence - Kirkwood stations (mailed to us because Independence does not have a manned station.) Trip is scheduled out Aug 11, return Aug 13...

DTA: Sorry this is expired. I just signed up for it a couple days ago. WAAAH! I got this through the Continental One Pass page, here is from the notification email. Thank you for using the Points Exchange - the world's first and only loyalty program currency exchange! As a promotional bonus...

Can someone double check my eyeballs? Boo hoo :angry: if it is gone, I was finally getting around to subscribing.

The promo page for the Mo River Runner 20% discount states that "Reservations must be made at least three days prior to travel date." So, if I want to travel on a Thursday, do reservs need to be made by Sunday? or by Monday?

I'm thinking of making the following one-way, one zone AGR points trip. So, I am checking out availability of family rooms for the trip. I find several days for which the SW Chief and Coastal Starlight have family rooms available, but the Empire Builder does not. If/when I call to book my...
