Every few months people tend to think that the end is near for USAir. Granted, they are not in great financial condition, but neither are many of the other airlines. Although I would not hesitate to pick up a USAir Visa, you may want to take a look at the UAL Visa instead. They usually either offer a 20K mile enrollment bonus or a fee waiver and slightly less of a bonus. The reason I mentioned UAL is becuase they are a USAir partner and also a memeber of STAR. Although you can't pool the miles between the two airlines, you can fly on either one. With that said, the USAir Visa does offer some nice perks if you reularly travel on USAir so go for it.
