Bottom line is I want a card that is going to give me real benefits.
any recommendations?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts.
my recommendation, and you are correct the AMEX delta is practically useless as delta flights are obscenely high in value, would be the chase “ultimate rewards” card which allows you to earn 1:1 points , have them in a bank and then transfer them ( same name required) to up to about 10 frequent flyer programs, including united and a bunch of foreign airlines, some much more friendly towards using points for miles. If you have this Catd you card also have a chase freedom rewards card and also use the same ultimate rewards points . With the freedom, you can get 1.5:1, a great value,
