Rapid Reward perk confusion

[Jenne03]

I posted but I cannot find it. It isnt in my profile. So hopefully this isn't a duplicate.

Im confused about the new perks. I have rapid rewards plus card. I have a trip booked for 5 people. Is the 2 early checkins per trip(one way) or per passenger? So If it costs me $100 for early bird will I be reimbursed $40 or the full $100?

If I upgrade to priority card...It is 4 upgrades. Is this per passenger or trip?

Thank you!!

The Plus card comes with reimbursement of 2 EarlyBird Check-in purchases per year.  An EBCI purchase is one person, one way.  If EBCI is $20 per person you can get $40 reimbursed.

The Priority card includes reimbursement of upgraded boarding, that is a completely different thing than EBCI.  Upgraded boarding is purchased at the gate before a flight and gets you a boarding position in the A1-15 range, if any space is available in that range.

Also If memory serves, you pay for the upgrade at the gate and Chase credits your account on the next monthly statement.

Yes, that's true. You pay for the upgrade. But that payment is credited to you in your next statement.
