Yes, the Ultimate Rewards Points differ from the Priority Club Points (Hotel Chain Specific). You'll need to get a Sapphire Preferred or Ink Bold Card to be eligible for transfers of UR points to Southwest.

I know I'm missing something here and I'm hoping someone can set me straight.
I have 80k points from the Chase Priority Club card (Priority Club Reward points). When I log into my account I still only see a 10kpts = 2k miles on any airline deal. Are these somehow different from other Chase points? Why do I not see the 1:1 offer?
