Global Traveler Readers Give Shout-Out to Exclusive Events Program in New Category; Program To Celebrate with “All-Star” Event in New York City

Inside Access from Chase, an exclusive events program for Chase cardmembers, received the inaugural “Best Credit Card Special Events” program award from Global Traveler’s 13th annual GT Tested Reader Survey Awards. The program offers eligible Chase cardmembers once in-a-lifetime experiences, such as celebrity meet-and-greets, private culinary, music and cultural events, and behind the-scenes previews to sports and fashion.

“Global Traveler’s readers not only reaffirmed how important it is to provide cardmembers with unforgettable experiences, but also see Inside Access as a go-to place for exploring more of their passions,” said David Gold, a general manager of Chase Card Services. “We are proud to receive the first award in this new category and will continue to bring ‘Inside Access’ and one-of-a-kind experiences to our cardmembers.”

The survey asked frequent business and luxury travelers to name the best programs in a variety of categories including special events, which was added for the first time this year.

To celebrate the award, Inside Access from Chase will host an “All-Stars” party by bringing back some of the most popular celebrities and experiences in one place. The event will take place on January 9, 2017 at City Winery in New York City and feature celebrity-hosted interactive sessions, a walk-around dinner, live music and other fun activities, including:

  • Culinary:
    • Anne Burrell, chef and Food Network talent, will provide tips for making hors d’oeuvres
    • Famed pastry chef François Payard will teach guests how to pipe and fill éclairs
    • Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto and his team will prepare individual sushi hand rolls
    • Executive chef Dino Gatto will offer Rao’s famous meatballs
    • Wine tasting sessions in the City Winery Barrel room with wines from renowned importer, Frederick Wildman and Sons
  • Sports:
    • Football legend “Broadway Joe” Namath will host a Q&A session on his life and the current season
    • Tim Morehouse, world-class fencer and silver medalist, will host the festivities and offer an interactive fencing session
  • Music:
    • Max Weinberg, drummer for Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band and recent inductee in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, will perform with his all-star band and will close out the night with a show featuring dancing to rock and roll favorites

“Once again, Chase cardmembers can get up close and personal with Inside Access from Chase ‘All-Stars’ in a truly unique and experiential way,” Gold said. “All attendees will also go home with great mementos of the event, including a signed Joe Namath football and drum head from Max Weinberg.”

The Global Traveler awards also recognized several Chase credit cards, including: The Ritz-Carlton Rewards Credit Card for “Best Frequent-Stay Affinity Credit Card Redemptions,” the Marriott Rewards Credit Card for “Best Frequent-Stay Affinity Credit Card,” the United MileagePlus Club Credit Card for both “Best Credit Card” and “Best Credit Card Rewards Program,” and the United MileagePlus Explorer Credit Card for “Best Frequent-Flyer Affinity Credit Card.”
