Thanks!

Spend requirements are missing from the Wiki.

Indeed. 70k, $50 SC + 5k AU offer here, I've seen the SC, the 5k AU points and the rest of my "normal" spend post, but not the 70k bonus.

My 70k and 5k bonus showed up together in my United account yesterday as one 75k post.

Can I ask when you hit your $3K spend and when the end of your billing cycle was?

I hit my 3k spending on 7/14 and my bill cycle ended the 15th, so that's probably why I haven't seen my 70k yet.

I got targeted for 50k after 2k spend (plus 5k for AU). Got the mail today. AF waived for first year.

Now, I am torn between getting this and waiting till new Chase's new card (reserve) comes out. I am 4/24. I also have a Delta Amex targeted offer (50k after 1k spend). Both MPE and DL Amex offers are valid till end of september. Any suggestions?

Mileage Plus Select vs Mileage Plus Explorer - main differences?
 

Cant find a good side-by-side comparison to review

I am a UAL frequent flyer, Silver

I'm assuming you already have the Select as it's long gone from being offered?

If so and you value earning miles with your spend, don't get rid of the Select. 2x miles at places like Wal-Mart, Target, etc....

You also get 5,000 bonus miles added annually.

Hi,

I have a question all your gurus on here.
I've been using a Chase MileagePlus card since 10 yrs ago. At some point, I remember I upgraded to the Chase MileagePlus Explorer since it was first released. I think my CC history is based on the Explorer card. I know for sure that I shouldn't cancel this card, but I would like to upgrade this card.

Most of the expenses on this Explorer card is business related. At this point, I see that the Business version of the Explorer card offers 1.5pts for selected charges. Is it a good idea to call them up and upgrade directly to the business version? Would I be able to keep the same CC number?

Sorry, maybe I'm being obtuse, but I don't see the entry in the wiki?

Also, I'm assuming $3k is in actual spend, and I shouldn't factor in adjustments like the $50 statement credit against the $3k spend requirement?

Checked Bag rules
 

Hello. Sorry if this has been asked or answered before but I couldn't find it.

I have the Chase United Explorer Credit Card.
I plan to buy a United airline ticket.

1.) If I buy the ticket directly through United and use my United Credit Card I assume I will get my 1st bag checked. Question is will they consider a snowboard bag applicable to "standard bag"? I don't think they charge extra for this type of bag generally but I don't want them to pull off some BS "this isn't standard bag" so you owe $25.

2.) Assuming the snowboard bag is a valid bag for the credit. If I wanted to use Citi Thank You points to buy my ticket but try to charge at least a portion of the ticket to my United Credit Card would that allow me to get the free checked bag credit? (For Snowboard). I wasn't sure if anyone tried the partial payment for the ticket on the United card and if that gave them the free checked bag.

Thanks.

It is there, near the bottom:
