Would be interested in the tier list of amex and other credit card transfer partners, I feel like it’s really hard to distinguish good from bad transfer partners without doing extensive extensive research so a video would be super helpful

Tier list for transfer partners is a great idea, Sebby! I got about 250k points and looking to see if there's a good option instead of going Schwab cash out

depending on where your base airport is but generally I feel like international flights would be great redemption options. Some domestic flights are great ways to use as well. Personally I live in Pittsburgh and I travel a lot to Bos and NYC. It usually costs only 7.5k or 8k for me to fly one way to and back from those cities (round trip 15k - 16k). You can transfer to Lifemiles for United flights, Virgin for Delta flights, and British Airway or Qantas for AA flights. All of them have fixed redemption rate of 7.5k or 8k plus around $5 taxes for short (around 2 hours) trips, no matter how the cash price of the tickets are. Normally they are around $179-250+ one way so the MR points are around 2.2-3 cpp, which is a lot higher than the Schwab rate of 1.1 cpp. For international flights so far, I redeemed Singapore Airline business class from JFK to FRA for only 60k points per ticket (retail price at $2000). The econ class tickets are around $500 for the same flight so you could think of using 10k points to upgrade from econ to business. For international flights like this, a business class would definitely make your trip better. Lying down for 8 hours is much better than sitting there for the night lol. But your miles may vary, all depending on your needs for travel and where you live in. Hope that helps a little!

Could you do an updated video on how to spend your amex points for 2023. Best offers to redeem your points.

I’d love to see a video on transfer partners! I’ve been getting ~1.25 cpp on domestic economy flights with Delta but it would be nice to see other options laid out. 🍔

I would love a video where you go through each of their partners and how you would redeem their points. The average consumer probably has no idea how to do so and probably just uses the Amex travel portal, which from what I hear generally gives you worse rates than the Chase travel portal.

Yes, please make video on transfer partners and value for aspirational travel. Thanks

A video on a transfer partner and flight booking would be a very useful video. I think you’ve already done one but more examples are always better. Thanks for the great content!

Would definitely be interested in a tier list video! Thanks for the quality info!

Hi Sebby, love the channel! The transfer partner primer would be great.

Keep it up man! Got my gold card last October because of your coverage of it. Between all the credits and Delta flight upgrades via point transfer I’m gonna be ~$350 net positive for my first year.

I think a deep dive on nuances you would have to deal with for each transfer partner is great! For example, how some airlines may take days to transfer. How some airlines may have way more taxes and fees than the other. If you feel like you're trying to book a Qatar flight through BA, but are having trouble, you can just move points to BA and then move them to Qatar. How ANA has some flights that get booked up real fast and it's extremely hard to get a trip to Japan if it's only a couple months away. Etc. The only concerning part is once the info is widespread and easier to navigate, I'd wonder if it would create new challenges.

Even having a "solid" grasp on MR points & booking J & F, i would still enjoy a video from your perspective!

I think having someone like you who understands the little nuances of point systems would be a great help for a lot of people 🎉

Great content as always I would be interested in the tier list of amex and transfer partners video thanks again for the great content keep it coming

Great video! A transfer partner video specific to Amex would be very useful. It would make life so much easier for me when looking at how to spend my MR points. 🍔

Yes do a video on the partners and using transfer points!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

I was interested in for my first travel/food card. I narrowly picked CSR over the AMEX Gold/Platinum

yes we need a video on the tier list for the transfer partners. please make one!

Great video as always! We recently transferred some Amex points to Flying Blue when they were offering the 25% bonus, we were able to get 9 cents per point value on our round trip business class flight! Thanks for all the advice!

Would love to see your tier list for transfer partners for Amex and even chase

We travel/credit card enthusiasts are always interested in hearing about some ways to maximize cc points by using transfer partners, so yes, please Do IT! 🍔 I'm a big fan. Greetings from Atlanta

Would love a tier list and the best way to apply points!

Please make a video of the partners and hope to redeem points at higher value! Yes I been waiting on a video like this

🍔thanks for the info. I am a brand new Amex Platinum holder and there is soooo much to understand.

🍔 would love an advanced video on transfer partners. I'm pretty good in this game but the TP portion is something I still struggle with

Would love the video on transfer partners with an additional tier list!

You got me. I would absolutely love to see how you spread your points to partner airlines for outsized value. Love your content! 🍔

I would also love to see a video on transferring points. It’s so complicated! For example, I had the thought of getting 4 first class Aer Lingus tickets from SFO to Dublin, but then it seems impossible to get 4 award tickets. I wonder if award tickets are better for only one or two people.

Yes, please do a vid on the transfer value with the partners

Please make that tier list video on transfer partners! Would love to see it for more than just amex

I would love a video on what using travel partners is like! I never have but ive been subbed for years and always hear about it.

Yes! Tier list partner point transfer video/ tutorial needed please!😊

🍔 #166! Love the outsized bonuses and offers from Amex. Love that there are usually no hard pulls when applying for new cards.

That’s a must with the transfer tier list! Go for it!

Yes please break down the travel partners with examples

Yes! Please make a video about their other partners and how to redeem the points!

6:22 Yes Sebby please go through partners with examples! I still have a hard time figuring out how to redeem points with real life examples. I understand in theory but have a hard time executing on how to do it. Also funny at 8:00 there is the old Uber Credit Card :( 🍔

I would like a video on best transfer partners for American Express, including real examples: domestic (economy, first business) and international (economic, first class), etc. Will settle for tiers to consider.

Yes definitely a video on transfer partners. I wanna do a trip to Tokyo but would love other options with 250k+ Amex Mr points

thanks for the video..would be great to see how you maximize amex MR on partner airlines...i just booked a point trip to paris from NY, and think i used to many miles. thanks again

Yes talk about the transfer partners for both amex and chase.

nice camera upgrade. it was very easy to notice. :)

please do an amex transfer tips vid!

Please make a tiered list of transfer partners and how you'd rank them! I would love to see a video about that !

I opened up the vanilla platinum and Schwab versions. Love the platinum

Would love to see a video on transfer partners and point redemption. Planning a Japan trip for 2024 and want it to be my first J flight!

A video on how you redeem for business class or first would be great, specifically how you are getting the most value

Yes please do the transfer partner basic rules and sweet spots

🍔 Sebby, I like your analysis of the Platinum return protection benefit. Thanks!

Video was very informative thank you! 🍔 Can you make a video about AMEX Cards for military service members? As a soldier I get the annual fee waived so the card seemed like a no brainer. Traveling is very common in the military as well.

I’d also like a video on the tier list for AMEX transfer partners. I’d also like to see your evaluation of the excise tax fee that AMEX imparts on domestic airlines and if you can bypass that fee by going to a different airline for similar value

I love Amex. I have the cobalt and the essential card. Plan on getting the gold card later on.

🍔 Thanks Sebastian, very helpful for me since AMEX is my main credit card issuer. I would be interested if you would walk us through how to transfer AMEX MR points to airline or hotel. It sounds difficult if you are flying one airline but moving MR points to another airline.

🍔 Great video, I've been going back and fourth on getting the Platinum. That annual fee has been keeping me from trying it out but I think this breakdown has convinced me that I would get my money's worth. Although, I'm not sure if I should get rid of my Blue Cash Preferred if I go Platinum or not.

Definitely down to see transfer partner video with the MR

🍔 appreciate the keeper card segment! Also a video of transfer partners and their alliance network would be awesome

Gold Status with Marriott & Hilton w/o getting their cards plus 2:1 transfer ratio of MR:HH also makes Hilton award nights even more appealing.

🍔 Love watching Sebby videos while in Amex Lounges. Lounge Access is the best benefit. Keep up the videos!

Always with great card information So here we go I have the blue cash everyday What is the chance of getting approval for these card you cover in this video 🍔 I have had AX since I was a teen via my mom and I LOVE them but I want to get my AX big girl card

I’ve settled into an all-AmEx lineup: Platinum Card, Hilton Aspire, Bonvoy Brilliant, Delta Reserve, and Gold Card. Blue Business on the side.

Can you go over transfer Amex MR points to Jet Blue. I frequent Jet Blue. Thanks! You have great vids!

🍔 I would de like to see a video on how to effectively use the transfer programs primarily for Amex and Chase as they have better card networks to build MR points, imho. Thanks for the great videos!

Tier list or partner transfer benefits video would be great!

I've had a Blue Cash card forever without much use but upgraded it to the Preferred which has the 6% back on supermarkets and 3% gas and it's been a total game changer. Excited to try out the Green for my upcoming trips, too

🍔 I would love a transfer partner tier list. Could not agree more that the Aspire card is a great multi card keeper.

🍔 I'd love to see a transfer partner primer video. I'm newish to the MR ecosystem and would love to better understand the mechanics of it all. Thanks!

A Transfer Partner video would be great! Still trying to figure out all the connections for the partners.

🍔 I'd be interested in finding out more in regards to Amex travel partners and seeing which ones are more beneficial to transfer too. Would be a handy travel guide

🍔 I just switched from Amex gold to Amex platinum because platinum costs me less based on my current spending. I’m on a low, fixed income but have needed (yes, needed) to travel more lately. I don’t eat out and save $ where I can. While I’m flying more, I’m not fond of loud airports. Offsets include: Clear, streaming services,lounge access, etc. For first year, benefits > costs = net income. Your channel has reminded me of some of the benefits I hadn’t been using. Well, I’m using them now. My cost? Less money spent on streaming = more $$ for flights. Hope this makes sense, and thanks for the excellent content.

Definitely do a transfer partner video!

🍔Yess!! Can you please do a video on how to transfer your points for airline tickets or hotel stays.🙏🏽🙏🏽

Sebastian, the videos about usage of points would be helpful (a chart/description/discussion).

Please do the video for transfer partners and how to redeem for best value. Trying to book a flight with 150k points but delta partners not showing same flights as delta websites.

yes please some common use cases for redeeming MR points. I have around 500k but never used one yet. I tend to just use chase UR for hyatt and pay cash for flights. MR points seemed to not do that well for domestic travel?

I think a "how to" video for maximizing transfer partners would be extremely useful! 🍔

🍔. What video should I watch from your channel to get some more knowledge on getting the best bang for my points. For flying international . I have amex platinum and chase points ?

🍔 Sebby you the man at giving good comparisons with Amex’s competition! Keep it up !

Can you make a video on how you decide where/when to transfer your points to airlines. Also do you use any tool/software to track these bonuses on transfers aswell as partners of these airlines.

Would love a video on transfer partners and more information on the amex tier list.

Pls do a video on the Amex travel transfer partners and how to get the best value.

was flying miami to newark today and the line for centurion lounge was about 50 people waiting outside the lounge. I cancelled my personal platinum during covid and just got the biz platinum cuz of the elevated offer and my GOD, a lot has changed in 3 years. Literally just bought coffee for 5$ instead of wait in a 50 person line to enter the lounge

Please do a video on the transfer partners--it would be great! 🍔

Would be a great idea to make a video on the Amex transfer partner

Please do a video on travel partner transfer how to!!! :-)

I would definitely like a tier list! 🎉

🍔. Have only had Platinum for a couple of months, but so far 5x on flights has been the bomb! Second has been the Amex offers. Already set up to take advantage of a ton of cash back/statement offers.

Bilt is honestly a strong contender with United and Hyat and no fees. But I love my amex card. Amex's 2:1 Hilton rate is actually quite decent when you find outsized hilton value. it's definitely possible to get 2-3 CPP this way. The extended warranty also saved me $250 on an audio gear repair too. Immediately covered the annual fee.

R u talking about the Gold card here?

Good Work my man. I have a Rose Gold Card and the Preferred Blue Cash Card. Was rocking the Amex Trifecta. Got rid of the Platinum because it really sucks for people the travel with family and children. And I'm not going to spend 75k just so my bunch can chill at the Centurion Lounge. No thanks. If the platinum card can make some tweaks and make it friendly for families I'd snatch it up again.

🍔.. so I really like the travel portal of Amex when booking a flight with points. I typically only fly domestic and out of MSP so 95% of the time it's Delta. If I convert my MR points to Delta Miles I have to essentially pay a fee to do it. In contrast, I can just book the flight through Amex Travel portal and since I only use Amex Gold for groceries, food, and booking flights, I'm getting my effective 3-4% back.

Travel partner and point redemption video on strategy would be great Sebby

Yes please do a video transferring points to airlines like united so who can I transfer my points to 🤷🏻‍♀️ where I live where a united partner with a smaller airline from MLI. To Chicago or Denver

Absolutely interested in a point partner video
