I tried to downgrade to no fee British Airways card through Chase. They said there is no such card.

Any tip on getting to someone at Chase who knows what I am asking for.

Thank you for making my favorite evenings possible… I am sure PVR was a blast.

In a couple of cases that allen96 mentioned. If you don’t fly BA often, you can do better earning points with Chase Ultimate Rewards cards and transferring them to British Airways.

Thanks as always for reading, Doc, and great to see you recently!

You’d have to close your existing card and apply again. That’s what I did.

Or you could open the Iberia or Aer Lingus versions of the card – they all earn Avios and transfer between the airlines.

But you couldn’t add this offer to your existing card. As a pro tip, if you want to keep your current card, Chase has an unadvertised no annual fee version they can downgrade you to.

Let me know what you end up doing! 🙂

Totally – especially if the cash prices are ridiculously high! Glad to hear you get use from the Travel Together certificate!

It is a great deal for round trip business class, with good connections to other European destinations.

Can I apply for another one? Or activate this offer with my existing card?

Only if you actually fly at least one BA flight a year that costs over $950 and get the 10% off the card allows. Or two flights every two years, etc. I do 4 flights every 4 years (family of 4) so it’s worth it to me.
