In the ongoing saga of point transfers to Emirates Chase has announced that it will not be possible to transfer any longer starting on 10/16/25. Previously we have seen the following happen with Emirates transfers:
- American Express Reducing Transfer Rate To Emirates To 5:4 (Currently 1:1)
- BILT Losing Access To Emirates Transfers On 5/27 Until 6/19
- [Reversed] Capital One: 25% Transfer Bonus To Emirates (1:1.25)
- Chase & American Express Losing Access To Emirates Transfers On 5/29 Until 6/30
- Citi Reducing Transfer Rate To Emirates To 1:0.8 (Currently 1:1)
Our Verdict
It’s never good to lose a transfer partner and lose an option. I suspect Emirates has started charging card issuers more for miles and this is why we have seen these changes but it’s impossible to know for sure.
