Capital One Venture X provides access to two lounges at DFW that could not be accessed with Priority Pass alone, but you need to look at the lounges physical locations versus the gates used by AA and WN to decide how often you would actually use those lounges.
This may change, but for now the net cost of Venture X is $0. It's a card you could open in addition to something else.
Decided to go with Hilton Aspire. Decided I do not want to book through portals, and lounge access isn't that important to us. it's nothing we would pay out of pocket for normally.

I think the real reason for the denial was that I never carried a balance when I used to have their Spark and Savor One cards so they never received any interest payments. I decided to stop doing business with Cap One and closed my 360 Savings account quickly after the denial. Amex is getting the majority of my spending these days, followed by Chase. It’s good this was the only card I applied for this year so the 3 bureau hit won’t sting me as much, but I was surprised and upset by what happened.
Glad I didn't apply then. Never carry balances on my cards, 790ish score. not worth the 3 pulls, went with the Hilton Aspire instead.
