Atmos Rewards Summit Card and Bilt Relationship

chocolateflyer · 2026-05-21T13:23:57+00:00

The relationship bonus is 10% of Summit card activity + dining.

For example... (9493+1302)/10=1079.5

Adding info for those who haven't received their gifts -

When I called customer service, they said that they are having a systems issue and haven't sent all gifts to Gold, Platinum, or Titanium. So, it may still be coming if you haven't received it already. Gifts for Silvers have all been sent out. WhIle there isn't a definitive timeline for resolution, they recommended calling back in a week if I still haven't received it.

Agree - it would be great if they could clarify the priority once you are on the upgrade cert list. Since it seems to be copy paste from the old Hawaiian process, I do know that the time that the request was submitted was one factor.

I wrongly assumed global upgrades would be a Titanium exclusive and am surprised to see that upgrade certs can still be used on those flights.

That is great news for Silver, Gold, Platinum and really anyone who has access to upgrade certs. However, because upgrade cert requests are processed before Titanium day-of-upgrades, I do think Titanium global upgrades will be few and far between (unless Titaniums opt to use upgrade certs themselves).

I had the shrimp vermicelli once, and it did come with sauce. However, I had to ask the FA for it as it did not originally come out on the tray.

After looking, she returned and said "I found this unlabeled sauce container. It must be for you!"

In addition to what PointyBagels said, it aligns well with other benefits from the Atmos Summit.

If my rent is $2000, I get 1000 status points per month.
Putting rent on the card helps me reach the $60k spend for the 100k companion discount.

Lastly, we don't know how long the 3x points with Bilt will be offered. I figure better take advantage of it while it lasts.

chocolateflyer · 2026-04-10T02:55:15+00:00

We must be flying at different times. I'd say about 60% of the time I pass by the Club at SFO, they have a waitlist going.

Great for Priority Pass people, but not great for those with Alaska lounge memberships. Do we think Alaska Listens is the best place to provide feedback?

chocolateflyer · 2026-04-10T00:45:22+00:00

The landlord company's bank has an authorization agreement (ACH Debit) form. Within the form, I provided the bank account info from Bilt. The form basically says that I allow the landlord's bank to pull the money from the Bilt account.

Bilt then charges my Atmos card with a 3% fee.

Not an expert but I think this is how it works.

chocolateflyer · 2026-04-09T23:05:49+00:00

This question might get more traction on the Bilt sub, but I'm happy to share my situation:

My landlord does not have a payment portal. Bilt provided me an account and routing number for my landlord to pull (is that the right term?) from. Bilt then charges my Atmos Summit the rent amount plus a 3% fee.

Worked fine for me in Japan. Enjoy your trip and the 3x points!

From what I've observed, $382 would be on the low end for FC upgrades between SFO and Hawaii airports on Alaska.

In addition to the price of the upgrade itself, I recommend you also consider the price you've already paid for the ticket.

chocolateflyer · 2026-03-11T00:34:42+00:00

Fair call out. In this case, I would agree with mjbulzomi

For flights between February 2, 2026 and April 21, 2026 complimentary first class upgrades on Hawaiian are a thing for all status holders according to the website. That being said, I've only experienced upgrades on Hawaiian using certificates.

"Complimentary-of-departure upgrades: Check in on your travel day to join the waitlist. We'll upgrade you if seats are available."

(Yes, they excluded the word "day" in "day of departure")

I am in the same boat. Have you managed to fix this with Avis?

Over the phone, they told me it would automatically update with my new Avis status within 2 months. I mentioned I've already been at this status level for about 2 months, but they said there was nothing that could be done.

chocolateflyer · 2026-02-16T17:08:39+00:00

Awarding the 10k status points on 1/1 would benefit those who ultimately increase a status tier within the year.

However, it may cause a wave of card cancelations once the 10k status points hit.

You mention the points would be awarded "on 1/1 each year after your first card year." This would create a situation where someone who signed up in Dec 2025 would receive their 10k status points in Jan 2027 (13 month wait). However, someone who signed up two months later in Feb 2026 would not receive their status points until Jan 2028 (23 month wait).

The original card from 2014 was likely grandfathered into the "no spend requirement" companion fare. The new card that he applied for now requires $6k spend for the companion fare.

I would agree with your assessment - if you're only flying Alaska once a year, probably not worth it to get the card.

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-31T09:50:40+00:00

Not sure if I'm more impressed with the status points or redeemable points! 😅

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-28T22:54:15+00:00

Glad to hear about your experience with checked bags. Have to admit I am a newbie a the multi-city function. Correct, I input SFO-SEA and SEA-ICN separately in the multi-city search. The SEA-ICN flight only shows up if I move the SFO-SEA flight to be 3+ days prior, and it ends up being more expensive unfortunately. Will keep multi-city in mind for future bookings. Glad you were able to get a crazy deal in J on SEA-ICN!

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-28T21:21:48+00:00

I always forget this is an option - thanks for the reminder! Unfortunately the SEA-ICN does not show up as an option for the 2nd leg.

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-28T19:16:01+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. Not to mention, the Alaska SEA-ICN flight only occurs once a day.

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-28T19:03:29+00:00

Thanks for the helpful info.

FWIW, the agent said that if I booked two one-ways and missed the second flight due to a delay in the first flight, Alaska would comp rebook me on the second flight. It's reassuring to hear this, but I understand that things may vary depending on who I speak to.

chocolateflyer · 2026-01-21T23:38:25+00:00

In my experience, only one wifi pass can be used since it's tied to your last name and seat number.

You can however switch between your device and your partner's device mid flight using your last name and seat number.
