I have a separate credit card for travel. Not for the reasons mentioned above though. I've had problems in the past using my credit card in various cities (Istanbul and London were two) - where a few months later, my credit card started incurring charges from each of those cities when I was not there.

Since then, I've started to use a credit card for traveling and a separate card for home. I request a new travel credit card every 3 months or so, to ensure that my number changes frequently. Although, for my travel credit card, I use it enough that the signature panel wears out in less than 3 months, so I basically need to request a new one that often anyway.
