The Chase Sapphire Reserve is now offering its highest-ever publicly available bonus, while the Capital One Spark Cash Plus just dropped a record welcome offer that business owners need to hear about. Several transfer bonuses are expiring this week, including a 20% bonus from Chase to Air France Flying Blue, making it a critical time to act on summer redemptions. Emirates Skywards also raised award prices this week, continuing a troubling trend of loyalty program devaluations across the board. Plus, Qatar Airways posted nearly $2 billion in profit but skipped employee bonuses, and American Airlines served a passenger pretzels that expired back in 2020.
