Miles & Points Daily Podcast

Today we cover United's impressive 100,000-mile business card welcome bonus, a mixed review of LaGuardia's Chase Sapphire Lounge, and United's concerning plans to introduce 'Basic Business' fares that could unbundle premium cabin perks. We also discuss Hyatt's customer service problems after outsourcing their call centers, Emirates' new luxury first-class check-in facility in Dubai, and Gulf Air's return to the US market after 30 years. Plus, enhanced Alaska-Lyft partnership earning rates and industry capacity cuts that could drive higher fares.
