Chase has added Emirates as a new transfer partner. You can now transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards to Emirates at a rate of 1:1 and the transfers happen instantly. Chase added JetBlue as a transfer partner last year. A full list of Chase Transfer partners now looks like this:
| Chase Travel Partners (All Transfer 1:1) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Airlines | ||
| British Airways Executive Club | Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer | Virgin Atlantic Flying Club |
| Flying Blue AIR FRANCE KLM | Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards | Aer Lingus |
| United MileagePlus | Iberia Plus | Emirates |
| Air Canada Aeroplan | ||
| Hotels | ||
| Hyatt Gold Passport | Marriott Rewards | |
| IHG Rewards Club |
To be able to transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points you need one of the Chase branded cards with an annual fee such as: Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Ink Preferred, Chase Ink Plus. Emirates was already a transfer partner for American Express Membership Rewards points. You can get some good value from Emirates, but the main issue is the high fuel surcharges/fees.
Yessssss!!!! Awesome. I for one love Emirates
Fantastic! I wouldn’t have credited my last Emirates flight to Jetblue instead of skywards if I knew this
Good…Wish Someone makes Alaska airline a transfer partner
Amex & Chase SPG cards transfer to Alaska. It is an awesome partner. I have booked many amazing emirates flights on Alaska including first class to Maldives. Is it better to book Emirates flights on Alaska or on Emirates?
Yeah…But on a 3:1 ratio. Pathetic. It may be considered when you need couple of thousands Alaska miles quickly…
Hope ChaseUltimate/AmexRewards/CitiThankyou will comeup with a 1:1 with Alaska
Awesome!
