Cathay Pacific has just unveiled a breathtaking lounge renovation at Hong Kong International Airport, setting a new standard for first class travel, though access comes with a major catch. On the credit card front, two standout offers are turning heads, including a massive 150,000-mile welcome bonus and a targeted Amex offer potentially worth nearly one million Membership Rewards points. Alaska Airlines and Bank of America have confirmed a major expansion of their long-running co-branded card partnership, hinting at exciting new products ahead. Plus, American Airlines is planning a stunning new lounge for Nashville, and World of Hyatt loyalists may want to start redeeming their points sooner rather than later.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
