HUGE news. Capital One now has JAL as a transfer partner! Ratio will be 4:3 (not bad) but has a 30% transfer bonus for the next month that makes it nearly 1:1 (1,000 C1 >> 975 JAL).

JAL metal has the best availability/rates, with the only other transfers being from Bilt (1:1 but hard to accrue their points) or Bonvoy (at 3:1 which is pretty rough unless you're just topping off).
