Hopefully you are a UA elite. Otherwise, unless you fly international exclusive, you should evaluate the 1st checked baggage free feature. That $90 is a easy save from paying more.

See whatever you want. Did not have club pass? Send you a new set.

Unless you have extremely good relationship with Chase, I do not see how you can get the annual fee waived, especially airlines card. $1,500 of purchase in the year does not seem worthy for Chase to retain you, to be honest.
