Can you give your fellow FTers an idea of how much you expect to spend internationally a year on the credit card?
I just added a second mileage card because I know I can always - even with the recent dilutions - redeem a mile for at least 6 cents of airfare. I carry a DL AmEx (primary, and most of my purchases get double miles) and a AA MC (secondary).
In order to carry a Visa, I did accept a branded debit card from BoA - it's only used for promotions that are effectively large rebates; some examples are the old "get a $X gas card for using a Visa" at Holiday Inn, "get a $25 voucher for buying a $100 gift card" at Southwest, or "triple points for using a Visa".
