Episode Description from the Publisher

Today's episode is packed with urgent updates across credit cards, hotel loyalty programs, and inflight experience. The Chase Sapphire Reserve for Business is getting a major hotel credit upgrade, and a Citi card is making a serious case for dethroning the Amex Platinum and Chase Sapphire Reserve for certain travelers. Marriott Bonvoy is in the news for all the wrong reasons, with a troubling report about unauthorized enrollments — plus a new loyalty chief stepping in with big expectations. American Airlines is quietly reshaping how it sells seats, and Delta One just made a move that premium cabin regulars will actually notice. There's also a best-ever limited-time offer on an American Airlines card that AAdvantage loyalists won't want to miss.Subscribe to Miles & Points Daily Newsletter 👉🏼 https://milesandpointsdaily.com/Thanks to Award Travel Finder for sponsoring this episode!Our Travel Tools:Award Travel Finder - Search award flights, hotels & status matchesAward Travel Alerts - Get notified when points deals dropFriday Flight Deals - Cheap cash fares & error faresFlight Queue - Airport security & passport control wait timesImmigration Queue - Immigration wait times at airports worldwideEES Queue - EU Entry/Exit System rollout status & border wait timesFlight Seatmap - Seat maps with live availabilitySeatWifi - In-flight WiFi availability, pricing & qualitySupport us - ChaseChase BusinessAmerican ExpressAmerican Express BusinessBilt RewardsCapital OneRampRakuten
