Collecting miles to use for Hawaii - Japan award tickets

I was hoping to get your comments on collecting miles to use for award tickets between Hawaii and Japan.
I would like to hear about your favorite company, how you collect miles, etc. I myself am currently collecting miles with Delta Air Lines Amex Gold, but I am considering doing so after I have used up all my current miles on award tickets.
The reasons for this are
- Delta's Amex Gold annual fee will be $ 100 => $ 150 ( $10,000 spend bonus will increase to $ 100 => $ 200 and new hotel credit $ 100, which is not bad in general ).
- I plan to use my BILT MasterCard to pay rent and accumulate points, but the airlines I can transfer points to are Hawaiian, United, and American Airline in the US.
- My destination is Nagoya, so I will be flying Delta to Haneda > Shinkansen to Nagoya is a bit inconvenient in terms of time ・ and money. On the other hand, it is possible to fly to Nagoya with JAL/Hawaiian.

Based on the above 3 points, I think that if I were to migrate, it would be to Hawaiian ~ ?.
On the other hand, I may continue to use Delta, $ consider the 200 bonus as bullet train fare, or use BILT points as Hawaiian miles for Interisland flights.

With my current Delta card, I have been earning 12,000 - 15,000 miles per year for the last few years.
I think ? the miles I get from purchases are roughly the same if I use the Hawaiian card as my main card.

Recent flights are
- Summer 2022 : Purchased direct Nagoya flight on JAL
- Winter 2022 : Purchased direct Nagoya flight on JAL, miles earned on Hawaiian
- Summer 2023 : On JAL Purchased direct flight to Nagoya with JAL, mileage credited to Hawaiian
- Winter 2023 : Awarded flight to Haneda with Delta
So, twice a year, I will return home by myself.
Seat is normal economy.

Note that the mileage requirement for a Delta Honolulu Haneda award ticket is roughly 94,000 - 104,0000 miles in Main Cabin economy.
The credit card award gives you 15% off the required miles, so it's actually 80,000 - 88,000 miles.

Of course, I understand that your destination, class of service, and usual mileage accrual are not the same, but
I would be happy to hear your opinions.

Hello, I am a high school student in the United States. I have heard that it is normal to obtain an F1 visa to study at a public high school in the U.S., but I have heard that the F1 visa only allows you to study for one year. However, I would like to know if it is possible to study in the U.S. with a visa other than an F1 visa, or if there is another way to study in the U.S.? I heard that it is possible to study in a private high school for more than one year, but the tuition fee is...

I get sick from the smell of marijuana.

I've never had a problem telling people this, but
lately my friends are giving me trouble.
All of them are American.

If you are over 30 and don't like marijuana, how do you deal with it ?

I thought about just making new friends, but I don't know where to go to make American friends who don't smoke pot.
I don't go to bars or nightclubs.

They are having a stamp rally until May. They say you can get a badge and shopping coupons.

I heard that a marathon will be held in Shinagawa in November. It is interesting to run in the city.

I've heard it's getting worse, but I'm not sure how it really is ?
Is it dangerous to walk to work or walk during the day while wearing earphones ?
I think I live in the Waikiki, McCully, Ala Moana, Makiki area.

About having a cat though I go back to Japan temporarily every year.

Greetings

I am posting because I am wondering about keeping a cat in the U.S. and was wondering if anyone currently has one or is familiar with the information.

I would like to have a cat, but I go back to Japan temporarily for 2 weeks every year.
I had not actually planned to have a pet, thinking about the furlough, but
I have always wanted to live with a cat, and now that my son has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and I know that living with a cat would have a very positive effect on him, I am seriously considering getting a cat now.
Most importantly, my son also loves cats.

What do cat owners do when they leave their homes for long periods of time? ?

If you have left your cat with someone you know, please let us know if there are any precautions or problems that have occurred.
If you have ever stayed at a pet hotel, please let us know the location and the rate ( I have looked at various websites, but many of them do not know the rate … I have the impression that there are not many hotels to begin with )
If you are looking for a hotel in BibiNavi, please let us know the daily rate. …

I would like to be well prepared to pick up a guest, but I have little information about what to do if I am away from home for a long time …
By the way, my house is a townhouse (. I don't know if this is relevant, but … )

If anyone has any information, I would appreciate it.

I am buying a car for the first time in Hawaii and I would like to purchase insurance, but I think it depends on the warranty, but how much does it cost per month ? Also, I would like to know if there are any warranties that I should purchase or that I don't need. Thank you in advance.
