Awesome news, See below on reply from Chase regarding Korean air
Dear *********,
Thank you for contacting Chase about transferring points
to Korean Air.
Please note, for contractual reasons, Korean Air was
removed as a points transfer partner in Ultimate Rewards.
I apologize for any inconvenience caused.
However, Chase has renegotiated the contract for Korean
Air and it will return as a points transfer partner on
January 25, 2015.
If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.
Thank you,
*********
