United Airlines is battling its cyber insurer in court over MileagePlus miles handed out during the CrowdStrike outage, in a case that could reshape how airlines handle compensation after tech disasters. On the rewards side, the Air France-KLM Visa Signature Card has just launched a limited-time 70,000 Flying Blue miles bonus that can fast-track you straight to Silver elite status, while the Chase Sapphire Preferred is offering its highest-ever welcome bonus of 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points — but reportedly not for long. Plus, a viral video of an American Airlines passenger confronting a woman in his old business class seat has a surprising twist that reveals exactly how precarious complimentary upgrades really are.
