Spirit Airlines has officially ceased all operations, marking the first major U.S. carrier liquidation in roughly 20 years — and if you have tickets or Free Spirit miles, you need to act fast. In this episode, we break down exactly how to get your money back, which airlines are offering relief fares for stranded passengers, and what the bankruptcy process means for your loyalty points. We also cover the Chase Sapphire Reserve's best-ever publicly available welcome bonus, a limited-time IHG credit card offer worth up to 185,000 points, and a Lufthansa mileage purchase deal for first class enthusiasts. Plus, we flag an important shift in Chase Points Boost redemption rates that could affect how you use your Ultimate Rewards points going forward.Subscribe to Miles & Points Daily Newsletter 👉🏼 https://milesandpointsdaily.com/Thanks to Award Travel Finder for sponsoring this episode!Our Free 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 timesFlight Seatmap - Seat maps with live availabilitySeatWifi - In-flight WiFi availability, pricing & qualitySupport us - ChaseChase BusinessAmerican ExpressAmerican Express BusinessBilt RewardsCapital OneRampRakuten
