Last Chance To Earn 100,000 Miles On The New Chase United Quest Card, Plus Get 2 Free Checked Bags Per Passenger, And Rebates On Paid And Award Tickets!

This is a great card offer!

Finances aside, I’m hesitant to commit to flying United due to their recent statement prioritizing things other than safety.

Thank you for the review. Looks like no brainer to take. 2x 5k rebate and $125 back easily covers the annual fee.

“Welcome bonus terms
You can receive the bonus on this card if you haven’t received a bonus on a Chase United Quest card in the past 24 months and don’t currently have a Chase United Quest card.”

Was this written by a robot?!

100K United point is worth only about $300 in travel. Why? Let’s not paint a rosy picture . You can almost never find good saver award and most award you find cost 40000 one way coach within US and Europe or Asia coach award that you find are 100k points or more

I’ve got quite a while until I’m out of the 5/24 hole, but from what it seams like, it makes sense to product change my United explorer card

If I upgrade my current united explorer card will I get the bonus?

Dan,

Whats the difference the quest and the explorer card?

Ty

Is there a United Quest business card?

meh
$250 too steep
I dont plan on spending $ on United so I am still out $250
prefer the explorer with waives AF first year

Any idea when this offer ends?

This is enticing. Would there be any conceivable reason to keep this card and the United Explorer card simultaneously?

Is this card more worthwhile than the United Chase Mastercard Club card?

Is the 100k miles United points or chase points?

I applied for the explorer card yesterday. Would have loved to be able to get this one

The 2 free bags applies only to the cardholder & a companion or to everyone under the same reservation #?

Is there still a way to apply to more than one Chase card while only triggering 1 one credit pull?

Are the two free bags in addition to the baggage allowance?

Hey Dan – Whats the best way to get rid of the Explorer and get this with the bonus?

Thanks in advance
Sam

if i get this card ,should i cancel my united explorer card?

If I upgrade from the United Explorer Mileage plus Card, will I get the 100k?
I know some people have discussed it here, but it doesn’t seem clear to me.

9/14-9/30
Best direct ? Landing erev Yk
Can’t be late
Ewr-tlv -ewr

Ly $1600
Anything I am missing ?

Free change for one year ?
Transferable ?

Free bags are on domestic and international travel ?

Is the $125 credit right away or only after having the card for a year

Can you pay the AF with miles like I was able to for the Explorer?

If I cancel my United explorer card, All that reflect negatively on my credit score, or are there any other negative negative ramifications for doing something like that?

With silver status, this would mean 2 70lbs bags, correct (and 3 if you carry skis everywhere you go)?

Can I change from my United Club (is that a downgrade?) and get the bonus? (Got the Club card about 8/20)

Do you get the 2 free annual united lounge passes?

free bags on award tickets that include segments on partner airlines? or only on UA metal?

I currently have the United Explorer card and am silver.

I fly about 4x a year with united, 1x Israel, 2x Europe and 1x Domestic.

About 25k-35k annual spending.

Is it worth applying for this card and downgrading my United Explorer card?

AU card ? Does it cost and do I get free checked bags?

Looks like a good card, I closed my United card about 2 years ago. Currently, have Sapphire Reserve. I am closing on a home in about 45-60 days, so can easily meet the spend requirements. Credit score is 800+. Any concerns about it messing the home-closing?

Any tips/tricks to fly to India (Delhi) from SFO using the miles?

Does this card open up more booking availability than the Explorer? Is it 2 checked bags for two pax (4 total) or 2 total?

Can the $125 be used for club entry?

“If 2 people bring 2 bags on an international trip, that would normally cost $400 round-trip, but it will be free with the United Quest card!”

Flying to Europe this would save $680!!!

bag 1 = $70, bag 2 = $100
x 2 people
x 2 for the way back

The awards availability on this card is more then the availability on other United cards?

If I have this card will I also get 2 free bags when booking through chase ultimate rewards? Or only if I put full fare on the credit card or pay with United points?

I just signed up for united explorer last week. would i be able to convert to this new card and get this bonus instead?

hi dan can u post about best credit cards for 18 year olds. I haven’t opened a single card yet because dont know which 1 to start with

@Dan, if I understand the benefit correctly, I would suggest revising your line about “two pieces of luggage for you and a companion” to, instead, “one piece of luggage for each of you and up to one additional companion”.

Any significant benefit to apply for this card as a 1K?

Is there any difference in Award availability between Premier Silver and having this card? Additive benefit of both?

Dan:

Please explain how to go about exiting my Explorer Card which I have had for 10 yrs (I’m Silver status) with around 65k miles left on it.

Thanks

If I cancel the card after 6 months (after I receive all the miles) will I still get charged the annual fee?

I got approved for the new united Quest card. Can i do a product change from my current explorer to a non united card or does it need to be a United card?

can these points be converted to cash?

Den which credit card offer have more value the Chase Sapphire or this new United card

A Primary Cardmember who is already exempt from checked baggage service charges will not receive additional free checked bags ……..
Explorer Cardmembers and Cardmembers with certain other United Chase Credit Cards will not get an additional free checked bag if there is no first checked bag service charge applicable to their international travel itinerary.

This is from the United site. Can you explain to me if this restricts my ability to bring on 2 free bags when I travel overseas?

If my wife got a Chase Explorer card last year and I got a card as an authorized user, am I eligible for the bonus offer if I sign up myself this time?

Does travel bank work these days for the amex platinum business $200 travel credit

Does award redeemed with AC or LM points trigger the benefits of this (or any other united) card?

Surprised you were able to open this card. How many cards have you opened that you are under 5/24

How many Chase cards can one have?

1) Am I able to redeem the $125 travel bank credit for a friend or it needs to be in the cardholders account?
2) Cab I get this card now while I have an active United Explorer card?
Thanks

If one uses the miles from this card to book a ticket, do we still get 2 free baggage? If not, then basically, one can earn the miles, but not use them if one wants to take advantage of free checked baggage.

Why not book a refundable flight to cash out credit? Works fine with other Chase credits.

I don’t like this card bec it’s the same color as the most recent SPG card. Brings back memories.

I’m looking for a card that provides primary rental coverage but not only for “business” purposes. Will this card provide primary coverage for a “personal” car rental?

I just tried referring someone and the offer says only 80,000 points instead of 100,000

Regarding the rebate points. Offer says “starting with the first anniversary”. Does that mean that there is no rebate credit on flights taken in the first year of card ownership?

Has anyone had luck with calling united and getting them to switch an already purchased ticket onto this card? It has been well over 24hrs. I saw mixed reviews when I looked online, but it was a post from a while back. I am still waiting for my cards arrival so I did not call yet. Goal is to get the free suitcases for my flight. Thank you

would this be a good card to add to the quinfecta as the united card? i have all besides a united card, just wondering for united if this gives me all benefits to make quinfecta most powerful.

What does the 3rd bag cost on EWR- TLV with this

Comparing the United club cards. I travel a lot between mia and nyc along with car rentals as well. Thinking hertz presidential makes most sense and benefit of club visits. maybe to sign up for the United club rather? Thoughts?

Dan,

How much cost to transfer points to a spouse?

How does that work?

Also on reg chase cards (I think here is not the place) but if you could tell me how I could transfer points from my wife’s sapphire/freedom to my ultimate rewards account to combine a big total of points I would really appreciate it.

I found 1 cons that this card is not getting 2 annual club passes vs the explorer that does

@Dan
I’ve looked all over United’s website and can’t find anywhere where it says that the Quest card gives a free carry-on bag to the cardholder on basic economy. Can you please confirm this is accurate? Thank you!

Just got approved! Was given a low limit though, $10,000. My chase sapphire and chase ba cards have $35,000 limits….

Any suggestions for an increase, or moving limits from card to card?

I applied through your link – approved. quick question. It says the 5,000 mileage rebate twice a year is on card holder’s 1st ‘anniversary’– does that mean doesn’t happen first 12 months of card, or I can book mileage flight next month and 5k miles returned to my account twice per 12 months, etc. starting now?

can confirm carryon and personal item and allowed on basic economy flight. No quest card on dropdown list of exclusions when checking in but when printing boarding pass header states allowances. Whew!!

Dan, I followed your link and got the United Quest card. It arrived two days before I left to Israel. When I entered my frequent flyer number, I got two bags free, even though I purchased the ticket on my sapphire reserve card. Saved $100 each way. Thank you

Any reports of card making you into a premier silver ?

Pretty sure that happened to my wife’s account. It’s now showing premier silver and showing our bags at 70 pounds

Are the expert mode instructions still valid? it seems to be different now…

I went to the travel bank and they showed purchase amount fixed options; $50 and then $100 in drop down, how do you do $125? do they take orders for exact amounts over the phone for TB? Thanks.

Does the $125 credit apply for taxes and fees on award flights?

Are the the car rental insurance benefits identical for both the Chase Sapphire Reserve and Chase United Quest credit cards? Or are the car rental insurance benefits better on the Sapphire Reserve card? TY

Thanks Dan! Just applied for a Quest card with you link!

If I book tickets for my children from TLV-EWR with my Chase Quest card, will they be eligible for two free bags? Would it help if I make one of them an additional cardholder?

Does an au also get 2 free suitcases when flying united?

how does this card compare to amex gold card ?

IMO the United BUSINESS is a better card for most people as it has a (1) $0 annual fee (2) 75,000 miles (3) business so wont waste a 5/24 slot.

My wife has a United explorer card, would like to close that and open this one, does anyone know if you can transfer mileage plus miles to relatives accounts?

This a new additional benefit : https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=124982.msg2454056#msg2454056

Do you get the free checked bags if you are traveling on points?
If not, what if you partially pay with points?

link dead?

Hey Dan!
If I pick up this card just for one year, and use it to purchase $125 of United Travel Bank funding (good for 5 years!) and sign up my wife for TSA-Pre for $85, so that makes my annual fee for the first year $40?

$40 for up to 100K miles seems like a no-brainer. Am I missing something here?

My wife has the Reserve and I have the united explorer card($95 annual fee)
I want to apply for the sapphire preffered or this united card.

Which should I apply for?

@DansDeals is the 2 free bags on top of regular allowance? Meaning if I’m 1K would I get 5 bags?

Does this card have a free companion pass? What cards do have?

Hi I would love to open the card but most of the flying in my family is done not by myself it’s done by my teenagers ,will they get free bags and Carry ons if I pay with this card, but not flying along with them?

How long does it take to get the bonus points once you spent the 5000
The charge posted yesterday and my statement closes Thursday
Do you think I will have by Monday

Do I get the free bag if I am flying air canada through United

I see travel bank option to buy at link at $100 or $250, not $125. do they offer exact amount purchase over phone? Thanks.

I just paid my first bill and the $250 annual fee. I couldn’t use points since I still did not reach 16k. Is there any way I can redeem these points retroactively and receive a refund?

Just tried applying. Chase wants proof of income before they can move forward with the application. Anyone else having that requested of them recently?

Hi Dan

do you know if I can get the 5k Miles rebate when I use miles to pay my annual fee?

Thanks

I’m planning a trip for 4 EWR to HNL Hawaii in July 2022. I plan on flying united because they have direct non-stop flights. Would I be able to get free airfare if I meet all spending requirements for the 100K miles? Sorry but I can’t wrap my brain around how much I’ll save.
Thanks!

Hi Dan,, With this card when booking basic economy can you get family seating together?
Does the baggage allowance apply to all family members or just 1 companion?
Thanks

So if I want to pay half the 1st annual fee (125) with miles (8333) I wont get the 5k rebate?

hi Dan you said its possible to split the booking between points and credit card but i dont see an option on the checkout page can you please explain how. (trying to get the free bags with the quest on an award flight) thanx

I ordered 8 tickets with the quest and i forgot to leave over some amount to get charged on my reserve for travel insurance.
Is there any way to still make it happen?

I signed up through here Dan a year ago. It’s renewal time. I will likely fly United 2-3 times this year ahead, and I have the explorer card for united.

I’m Silver this year rolled over past 2 years. Does it pay to renew (w/out the signup bonus?) Doing the math I see 10,000 back on flights (worth about $100) + the $125 credit for future travel – equals about $225 value. (Granted I could pay the annual fee for the 16.6k united miles, but seems like almost a wash). Am I missing something on the math above in my situation?

btw, I already have global entry etc. So not seeing the logic atm to renew. On that note, what’s the logical card to downgrade to (assuming closing the Quest is a worse idea than product change for credit score)? Thanks.
