Summary
The brand-new Chase Sapphire Lounge at Dallas Fort Worth just opened its doors, and it's unlike anything else in the network — including a first-of-its-kind whiskey lounge you'll want to hear about. Hyatt and Air Canada Aeroplan have launched a partnership with a shortcut to Globalist status that frequent travelers won't want to miss. American AAdvantage is running its best miles purchase promotion of the year, but there's a troubling development with Japan Airlines award pricing that could affect your plans. Alaska Atmos has rare wide-open Starlux business class availability across transpacific routes that won't last long. Plus, a massive Chase-to-IHG transfer bonus sounds exciting on paper — but the math may not be what it seems.
