If you’re partial to United Airlines and looking to maximize your travel rewards earning potential this holiday travel season, you’re in luck. Four United credit cards from Chase Bank — United Club Infinite Card, United Explorer Card, United Gateway Card and United Quest Card — just increased their welcome offers, with no increased spending requirements.
United credit card bonuses
Each card’s welcome bonus now offers 10,000 additional United MileagePlus miles than before. United Airlines miles are worth approximately 1.3 cents per mile, according to LendingTree. This means you can earn anything from $390 to as much as $1,170, depending on which card you choose.
