after ~10 years of 25k spend and two of 50k, I doubt I’ll ever actually charge anything more to AmEx
Similar boat. I’ve been putting $35K-40K on a DL AmEx Reserve for the past 10+ years. After this year (really from this point forward since I’ve already hit the MQM boost and won’t hit a second), it’ll be $0 on the DL Reserve. I’ll still put most airline purchases on an AmEx Plat for the 5x points and some other expenses based on card rebates but most purchases will be shifting to another card - for now an AA Citi card where I can build some status with AA’s program through CC spend though I’m also evaluating a straight cashback card.
