Points Boost is one of my personal favorite features to come out of the 2025 revamp of the Chase Sapphire Reserve® (see rates and fees).
It raised the ceiling on what your Chase Ultimate Rewards points can be worth when booking through Chase Travel℠ to up to 2 cents per point on select flights and hotels. The standard value per point for Chase Travel bookings outside of Points Boost is now 1 cent per point.
Since launch, redemption values have become more variable, with many bookings landing somewhere between 1 and 2 cents per point. But now, Chase is taking things a step further: you can get up to 2.5 cents per point on a curated list of high-end hotels.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
