So, the "good time" to have gotten the card was at launch when it was 100K plus the $200 AirBnB (aka vacation credit). I wouldn't count on seeing that offer again anytime soon. The fact that they already killed the restaurant feature of their Priority Pass is an indicator that they are needing to control their costs on this product.

I like to get 3 new cards a year. I have not seen a good deal in several months. I need to apply for something.
