Re: Travel Card Help

Here's the verbiage if you try to combine

 

I certify that this card belongs to me or my spouse/domestic partner.

Just as clarification, the terms specifically call out domestic partners (iirc), which varies slightly from the definition of BF/GF.  If you are living together I would suspect you'd have no problems at all.  If not living together, it's a little bit more iffy.


True, good point,  and that's why I added the line about domestic partner because I realized that it could cause problems if they couldn't east establish any ties between the two like a common address.  I would assume that if the OP and his g/f have a daughter together they would meet that definition


We do live together so we shouldn't have a problem there. All this is in regards to transferring points with the CSP, correct?

Yes, but includes any Chase card where you earn UR points

Re: Travel Card Help

Would we be able to book a flight to Hawaii from MKE using just our CSP bonuses? Roughly 100k UR between the two of us. Also, does Chase report AUs? Meaning if we each got our own and added each other, would that result in two new trade lines on our reports?

What class for the airfare?

 

Chase does report AUs.  If you both sign up for CSPs, and add each other as AUs (which you should if they still have the 5k AU bonus), you will each have 2 new TLs.

We're fine with economy. Business would be nice though.

Re: Travel Card Help

Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong (haven't really looked for award space to Hawaii), but I think Singapore (Star Alliance) can get you round-trip from the MKE to HNL for 35k miles per person in economy or 60k miles per person in business.

 

Any rewards junkies that confirm or refute that?

Looks like it's 25k and 45k for Korean Air. Is their availability usually pretty good? How do I check availability?

 

By the way, thanks for everyone's help on this!

Korean redemption would likely happen through Delta which is notoriously difficult to use for saver level awards.  Though a quick search of their website does list Hawaiian airlines as a partner, so maybe that might work.
