What do I get with Mosaic One that I don't get with my Barclays B6 credit card?
  • EMS (E+) seats at checkin? Last time I checked there were no aisle seats at checkin and in fact they were booked well in advance.
  • SDC? That could be useful if I'm buy a lower fare and want to switch to the better flight. But again, there's that pesky seating issue.
  • Free drinks?
Not to kick a gift horse, but it seems Mosaic 2 is the sweet spot.
Yes, being able to snag EMS for free for myself and all of my family members at purchase is where the biggest value lies (at least personally). Everything else is either duplicative or window dressing. Mint upgrade certificates might be nice in theory, but they won't match you past Mosaic 2, and it's a big stretch to get there.

In terms of how long it lasts, who knows -- but it's notable that this is now presented as a standing offer, and not explicitly time-limited as in the past.
