Card Briefs: Colorado Bank Switches Airlines in Visa Program

Colorado National Bank said it has added Frontier Airlines as a partner in the rewards program for its King Soopers cobranded card.

The airline replaces Western Pacific Airlines, which recently went out of business. Cardholders who accumulated points on Western Pacific can transfer them to Frontier.

The year-old no-fee Visa program also lets cardholders earn points for tickets on American Airlines, groceries at King Soopers supermarkets, and lift tickets at Cooper Mountain Ski Resort, among other things.

Colorado National Bank, a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp of Minneapolis, also announced it is reducing the point threshold for earning tickets on American Airlines.

Cardholders who accumulate 25,000 points can earn a coach ticket on the airline for travel within the United States and Canada.
