What do you see as the Arrival benefits for international travel compared to Venture -- is the Arrival card chipped?
Only problem using my Venture card offshore (Europe, Asia, Australia) was topping up my Oyster card at the Underground station at Heathrow. And there was an agent who just processed the top up manually using the unchipped Venture card.
My experience is that exchange rates are equivalent.
Thanks.
