SEA-MAUI using UR Points
Hello everyone
New to the forum.
Im new to the whole points game and I've been stacking up Ultimate rewards with my Ink Business card and Sapphire Reserve.
My wife and I are planning on a baby moon this April 27 (leaving morning)-April 30th (Arriving at night) and want to do Business/first class.
I've been searching just the Ultimate Rewards website and they only have one return nonstop flight that arrives on 5/1 AM which I don't like. Where else can I search for business class flights where I could use my UR points?
Please help out a newbie. Thanks!!!

There are two ways to use UR points. You checked via the UR Travel Portal and if they don't show the flight you're looking for you should check what is commercially available and then call Chase Travel Portal Customer Service to see if that can be booked.
The second way is transferring the points to airline programs for use in redeeming an award ticket. That is constrained by availability within the individual programs. UR has specific transfer partners that allow redemption at specific number of points & based on if award space is available when you want to travel.
Read up under the Chase forum below the airline programs on the Miles & Points menu. Lots of info there.
