The Chase Sapphire Reserve annual fee is increasing to $795 with new enhancements including access to Chase Sapphire Lounges, while documents reveal LAX lounge meal budgets of just $8.40 per person. After weeks of suspension, Emirates Skywards points transfers are back online for major programs like Chase, Amex, and Citi. Other updates include American Airlines suspending its Philadelphia-Doha route due to safety concerns, Capital One opening its flagship 24/7 JFK lounge, and a new Marriott-Uber partnership offering up to 2,500 bonus points for account linking.\n\nSubscribe to Miles & Points Daily\nThanks to Award Travel Finder for sponsoring this episode!\nSupport us by using these referral links:\nChase\nAmerican Express\nAmerican Express Business\nRakuten\nBilt Rewards\nCapital One\nRamp","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/mGEzONF0MciJo-rfzhcIcLdPLcIOq4AyVZqPGW4k00U/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kMWRj/NGM1N2NjYTMxNGY2/ZDZmYWU2ZTRmYmZm/MjMxMi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
