✈️ U.S. Bank Just Changed the Game: New Transfer Partners, Aeroplan's Shocking $10B Valuation & More

from Miles & Points Daily Podcast · host Miles & Points Daily Podcast

U.S. Bank has quietly added transfer partners to the Altitude Reserve card for the first time ever, opening up some surprisingly powerful award redemption options for existing cardholders. Air Canada has sold a minority stake in Aeroplan to outside investors at a staggering $10 billion valuation — more than the airline itself is worth — raising questions about what this means for members sitting on points. American Express Resy credits are expanding to include select Tock restaurants starting September 15th, making the Gold and Platinum cards even more valuable for foodies. Delta has reportedly leaked plans for a new nonstop route out of Austin that transatlantic travelers have been waiting for. Plus, Cathay Pacific's iconic Wing First lounge just reopened after a major renovation, and early reviewers say it may be the best in the business.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
