I want to retire my chase Sapphire reserve this month and switch to something that gets me delta advantage ( still researching the best card).
What is the best way to use 70k points if I don’t want to use them for travel via Chase? Unfortunately there are too many restrictions and I’ve not had a great experience with chase travel.

Let me refer you to Amex Platinum 😂 It has better benefit perks than CSR. As for 70K points, transfer to airline or hotel thats partnered with Chase. It’s 1:1 point transfer, that way you can reserve and use later.

Copying what GC1 said. Don’t transfer to a partner. Downgrade to a freedom unlimited to keep the points agnostic and then transfer when needed. I got the CSP before transferring to a travel partner for the 25% boost at least

the amex plat gives you delta lounge accesses and $250 towards incidentals for your preferred airline. may i refer 😀

Hi all,

I am an IT professional having almost 5 years of experience and want to move to Canada for PR. My CRS score is not upto the cut off. I need someone who can help in earning connections points for Manitoba PNP program.

As it allows having an acquaintance or a friend to earn those 20 points, it can help my PR application.

Anyone who is PR and resident of Manitoba can dm me to discuss around it. I am ready to pay for this assistance as well.
