I have an American Express Delta Skymiles card ($95 Annual fee after Year 1) and was thinking of cancelling it.
Question #1: If I reapply, will they offer the miles incentive and if so, how long do I have to wait to reapply??
Thank you.

I had the AMEX Delta credit card for about 7 years then I cancelled it last October because I didn't think I'd ever get enough miles on it to make it worthwhile.
Then in March of 2011 I reapplied just because I wanted the $99 companion voucher. I didn't expect to get the 30k new card miles but I did get them.
My question now is how best to get another 50k miles for Delta without flying? Most of flights are on Continental just due to lower fares from my location.
What methods can I use to boost my Delta miles? I doubt that closing this card and reapplying will get me the miles again since it already happened once.
Thanks.
