## Resource

Today's episode is packed with urgent news for points collectors, starting with transfer bonus deadlines that are expiring within days and an Aeroplan award chart change that's already in effect. We break down two Capital One business card offers with a combined potential of 300,000 bonus miles, plus a 90,000-point Southwest card offer worth over $1,100. On the airline front, American Airlines is under fire for selling first class instead of clearing elite upgrades, charging $30 for the worst seat on the plane, and a shocking customer service failure involving one of their most loyal flyers. We also cover United's surprising product investment push, an important Amex pop-up warning you need to know before your next card application, and Hilton's status match opportunity that runs through 2028.
