First off, Hello to all!
I am a 22 year old hard worker who recently discovered my love for travel. I went on my very first trip to San Diego last summer and had so much fun! I am planning on going to 2-3 trips this year.... Orlando, San Diego, and Vegas! As you can tell, I don't have much bills at the moment. I plan on moving out and getting my own place next year (house) so I would like to get a lot of traveling out of my system for the time being...
Here is my situation...
With the exception of the 3 trips I have planned but unscheduled this year, I plan on going somewhere atleast once per year. This is not business related travel either. I have done research into the various Travel Reward programs, but I am overwhelmed with choices and options. From my research, there are Airline based cards and Bank Based cards both with thier pro's and con's. I am a victim of the Frontier Airlines marketing campaign too, so I only plan on flying on Frontier Airlines (I live in Denver, + hard to resist the animals! : ) ).
I went to frontier airlines website (frontierairlines.com) and checked their cards and I also shopped the mastercard.com , and visa.com website.
My question is this; Are there any great reward cards/programs for a one-time annual flyer? I mean, if possible I would not like my points to expire. I also don't care about APR because I am able to pay my balance off in full every month. I am using a US Bank Cash Rewards card at the moment to pay off all bills in full every month, then I pay off the card full with cash [again, I' m cheap and I live at home].
I am just confused and I found this forum googling. I tryed searching, but I am having a hard time finding someone in my exact situation, all I see is APR this and APR that.
Tips will be taken thankfully!
