Other than Marriott stays themselves, the earning is same or higher using the Chase Sapphire Reserve (3x travel/dining vs 2x flights).
You are not limited in the number of points you can transfer from Chase UR. I transferred more than 50 K to achieve what I needed to become LT Platinum. I saw no other way. I realize it was not the best use of UR but it got me what I wanted.
