Question Advice requested on which cards to discard/add

Hi all:

I've had the following suite of CCs for the last year or so but am wondering what suggestions everyone has on which cards I have the opportunity to do away with and which cards I might want to consider adding --
  • Chase Ink Bold (Used primarily for telecom and office supply purchases)
  • Chase Freedom (Usually only use this for the quarterly bonus categories, typically gas, groceries, and Amazon)
  • United MileagePlus Select (Barely use this, keeping it just for the UA MileagePlus account really -- potential to discard since I can just transfer miles from my other points programs to my MileagePlus account?)
  • Amex EveryDay (I always try to make the 30 transactions per cycle to qualify for the bonus points)
  • Amex Costco TrueEarnings (Only used at Costco and for 4% bonus on gas when Chase Freedom's 5% quarter is not in effect)
  • Amex Blue (Never used, and I can't remember why I'm keeping it in my wallet. I feel it was because I needed it for Amex's Membership Rewards program for some reason perhaps?)

Other considerations --
  • I do travel overseas occasionally and right now the only card without foreign transaction fees that I have is the Chase Ink Bold.
  • My main intended use of Amex and Chase points is for airline travel (via transfer to the various airline FF programs).
