Episode Details

American Express has disclosed the top three ways most cardholders redeem Membership Rewards points, and none involve airline transfers. We break down why most people are getting just 0.6 cents per point while we aim for 2+ cents, and what this means for Amex's bottom line. Plus, IHG launches a record-high 175,000-point credit card offer, United's CEO declares war on American Airlines at Chicago O'Hare in an escalating gate battle, Aer Lingus awards become easier to book with AAdvantage miles, and we decode the complicated new Bilt Cash currency that expires annually. These stories will change how you think about points strategy.
