The brand-new Citi Strata Elite card is turning heads with surprisingly easy approvals and a first-year value that rivals the best premium card launches in recent memory. A limited-time Rakuten promotion is offering up to 100x Amex or Bilt points per dollar with select retailers, but the window to act is closing fast. Qatar Airways is also making headlines with a new ultra-long-haul route to South America launching in 2026, opening fresh redemption opportunities for Avios holders. Tune in for all the details, plus a points expiration guide, a Chase Sapphire Reserve perk you may have missed, and a surprisingly moving way to put your United miles to work.
