I tell them only do it for either gas,groceries or plane tkts since they earn 2 pts per $1

dont know any other way to spend $5k and get a $400 tkt thats like 8% return (most likely the tkt will be below exactly $400 but still a 7.75%+ isnt too shabby)
I have a free card that earns 1 point per 2 dollars spent. I thought the annual fee card earns 1 point per 1 dollar spent. Is there some other card that earns 2 points per dollar spent? If not, how do you earn another 10,000 points with a $5k spend to get to 20,000 points total (for the $400 airplane ticket)?
