The Points Guy's take: https://thepointsguy.com/news/citi-prestige-changes/

I’ve really only been using the Citi Prestige for paid hotel stays thanks to the hugely valuable 4th Night Free perk, but with the 5x and 3x bonus categories bring it “top of wallet” for me — and we’ll be moving our company travel bookings to this card to enjoy the 5x along with trip delay insurance. There’s no denying that the limit on 4th Night Free bookings will be a huge downside for some, but there are plenty of positive changes on the earning side.

Our TSA pre-check is about to expire, so we're going to switch to Global Entry. I didn't realize this, but the card also offers a credit for these application fees.

Good move. I always tell people to get Global Entry over Pre-check.

It's like, what, a $20 difference if you're the one paying for it - totally worth it. 

If i start flying even more frequently i'll look into switching to prestige, right now though a lot of our spending is Uber/Lyft and other travel.
