Citi ThankYou Points Now 25% More Valuable for Car Rentals, Hotel Stays, and Cruises

The Citi ThankYou® Premier Card comes with 40,000 bonus ThankYou Points after $3,000 in purchases within the first 3 months of account opening. Those 40,000 points are now worth $500 toward airfare, hotels, cruises, and car rentals (25% more.)

I went into my thankyou.com account to search for car rentals, and the results showed a 1.25 cents per point valuation.

It's fantastic that Citi made car, hotel, and and cruise redemptions more valuable, but I don't expect to use this new benefit.
