I wish Chase would partner with the United Lounges to give access to their CSR holders and American would contract with Citi for their Premium card for access to the Admirals club like Delta does with the Am Ex Platinum.
This is exactly what I expected with this CSR product update.
Chase controls United, Southwest, British Airway, Iberia, Hyatt, IHG, Aer Lingus and shares the Marriott Bonvoy.
Chase can easily grant elite status on any of those partners. Then this will make CSR much more valuable. I'd be happy to get some airline status by paying the $100 AF increase. But Chase could only get the almost worthless Lyft and DoorDash. Huge disappointment.
