At the end of this discussion, they took some questions from the audience, which we've consolidated for our "Question of the Week" episode this week. - Would you spend Bilt Cash to pay a mortgage (if you had a mortgage to pay)? - How is rent actually paid to a landlord (through Bilt)? - There was an announcement that Bank of America points will transfer to Alaska Atmos at some point in the future, which makes some think Bilt may be cut off as a transfer partner. Should we transfer just in case? - Where does an authorized user's points go?Subscribe and FollowVisit https://frequentmiler.com/subscribe/ to get updated on in-depth points and miles content like this, and don’t forget to like and follow us on social media.Music Credit – “Ocean Deep” by Annie YoderCheck out all of our other travel podcasts from around the worldThis podcast is part of the Voyascape Network, a collection of some of the world’s best travel podcasts.

Brian wrote in with this question, asking:How do I handle bookings when my small business pays for the flight? I have never used points/miles to book a business trip because it feels like I’m using up my personal miles for what would be a legitimate business expense (even though I earned many of those point/miles from business travel). Every once in a while, I see a very good redemption opportunity but don’t take it because I don’t know how to value those miles as a business expense - if it’s a cash booking it’s very straightforward. But this seems like I may be unnecessarily hurting the business by paying more in cash. How do you think of points/miles in this situation? This could apply to hotel points and FNAs as well. - One option is to assert a value for your pointsFind our RRVs here - Business pays base rate & you use personal points to upgrade or copaySubscribe and FollowVisit https://frequentmiler.com/subscribe/ to get updated on in-depth points and miles content like this, and don’t forget to like and follow us on social media.Music Credit – “Ocean Deep” by Annie YoderCheck out all of our other travel podcasts from around the worldThis podcast is part of the Voyascape Network, a collection of some of the world’s best travel podcasts.

Chuck wrote in with this question, asking:Do you think other banks will do something similar to what Chase did with Hyatt — requiring the highest end card in order to maintain the 1:1 transfer? Will Citi require the Strata Elite for AA? Will C1, Will Amex? I wouldn't want to cancel an elite card only to later learn I need it to maintain value of points.
