That's sure my attitude. We have no travel planned, except maybe the RV, for the rest of the year. And who knows about restaurants? With half of their tables removed, they'll likely be dropping like flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtravel Posted May 10, 2020 #27 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Got that email too. Better choice is a Chase Freedom with 5% cash back on groceries. Cash is better than travel points until we travel again. Cash always works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marriott( Bonvoy) chase card is $95 a year.... but you get the ability to use points for FF on 40 different airlines and a free Marriott hotel night each year.. not bad because you can use it on $250 a night hotels....... I get more benefit and flexibility than my UA premier card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can transfer Ultimate Rewards points to 10 airline programs (British Airways, Flying Blue, JetBlue, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Southwest, United, Virgin Atlantic, Aer Lingus and Iberia) and three hotel programs (Hyatt, IHG, and Marriott).Mar 27, 2020 Chase Ultimate Rewards: Transfer & maximize - The Points Guy Actually with their $300 credit for travel that brings the cost way down.
