#	Redemption	Cabin	Region	¢/pt	Why it's a sweet spot
1	Hyatt Category 1–4 with transferred Chase URChase UR → Hyatt	Any cabin	Global	1.8–3.0¢	Hyatt's published award chart is one of the last in hospitality. Category 1–4 properties cap at 15,000 points per night and often have cash rates of $200–$400. That alone clears 1.5¢ per point; weekend rates in high-demand destinations push it past 3¢. Chase UR transfers 1:1 instantly, so you don't need to earn Hyatt points the slow way.
2	Aeroplan partner business class to EuropeChase UR → Aeroplan	Business	Europe	1.8–2.5¢	Aeroplan's distance-based chart puts US East Coast to Europe at roughly 60,000 points one-way in business class on Star Alliance partners. Paid business fares on the same Lufthansa, Swiss, and Austrian metal routinely cash out at $2,500–$3,500, which locks in 2¢ per point even after Aeroplan's partner surcharge. Chase UR transfers 1:1, so you don't need an Aeroplan-branded card.
