How do you normally use your chase points if transferring? Generally speaking - do you get a better value transferring them to Hyatt or an airline?

I don’t know what the person the above is talking about. You can certainly find deals with airlines, but for the most consistent bang-for-your-buck redemption, Hyatt wins every time.

I routinely find Hyatt point redemptions around 3.5-4 cents per point, and sometimes even higher. The drawback is that Hyatt’s footprint isn’t as big as other competitors, but if you’re going somewhere that has a nice hotel under the Hyatt umbrella (Thompson is my favorite), it’s the best.

never found hotels worth much
look out for some airline point deals
i just use chase travel for airfares. easy 1.5x

Best value for hotels is transferring to hyatt. Airlines is subjective but a good sweet spot is Virgin Atlantic points to book ANA RT business class.

100% use for Hyatt. It is the best value for your buck.
