macOS 10.14.4
MacBook Pro 13 inches with Touch Bar i7 quad-core 2018 model
16GB RAM
I was on the website below:
https://www.flyingblue.us/en/programme/(popin:full-tier-benefits)
my CPU usage went to immediately 100-120% CPU usage. No other apps, or tabs/windows running. NO ads, videos running on the site. What happened? Anyone else having issues like this?
Any suggestions, advice?

I have not experienced this issue before however I do know that one possibility is that the specific website that your trying to access uses your Mac's CPU to mine cryptocurrency through your browser for Bitcoin and what not. What web browser are you using?
I will try that tomorrow & let you know the results. Thank you.
I'm using Safari 12.1, have you tried clicking the link I posted? How would you know something like that? I'm quite curious. 🤔
You are welcome.
