6 Benefits of booking through Chase Travel
Booking travel through Chase Travel as a Chase cardmember can offer several benefits, including:
1. Enhanced points value
Some Chase credit cards allow cardmembers to redeem Ultimate Rewards points for travel at a higher rate when booking through the Chase Travel portal. This means you could get more value out of your points compared to other redemption options.
In June 2025, Chase Travel introduced Points Boost, allowing Sapphire Reserve® and Sapphire Preferred® cardmembers to maximize the value of their points when redeemed on hotels and flights through Chase Travel. With Points Boost, cardmembers can get:
- Chase Sapphire Reserve: Points are worth up to 2x when booking a hotel that’s part of The Edit by Chase Travel℠ collection, all through Chase Travel.
- Chase Sapphire Preferred: Points are worth up to 1.5x when booking eligible hotels and flights with select airlines, and up to 1.75x on premium cabin tickets on select airlines, all through Chase Travel.
2. Exclusive offers and discounts
Chase Travel often features special offers and travel packages for Chase cardmembers. This can include lower fares or special hotel rates that may not be accessible elsewhere.
3. Accelerated rewards points
Some Chase cards, like the Sapphire Preferred or Sapphire Reserve cards, allow cardmembers to earn awards at an accelerated rate when booking through Chase Travel. For example, the Sapphire Reserve card earns 4x points when booking airfare and hotels directly, but 8x points when booking through Chase Travel. Note that purchases made through FROSCH by Chase Travel, Valerie Wilson Travel by Chase Travel or FROSCH International Travel LLC will not qualify.
To earn the reward points, you need to use your card to book travel in the portal. Redeeming points to cover all or a portion of your travel will not earn rewards.
4. Statement credits
Some Chase cards may provide statement credits for travel booked through Chase Travel. For example, the Chase Sapphire Preferred card offers a $50 annual Chase Travel hotel credit. This credit will automatically be applied to your account when your card is used for hotel accommodations booked through the portal.
5. Streamlined booking
Using the Chase Travel portal helps provide a seamless booking experience. You can view a wide selection of flights, hotels and rental cars all in one place while managing your bookings and rewards redemptions through the portal.
Chase Travel also provides the ability to book activities, cruises and more—making it a potential one-stop shop for trip planning and booking.
6. Ease of managing your rewards
The integration of the Chase Travel portal with Ultimate Rewards means that all your points are accessible and manageable in one place. You can view how many points you’ve accumulated as well as pending points. This can provide a straightforward way to monitor your balance and decide how best to use your rewards points.
