Re: Best Travel Card

I know most of the good travel cards have AF. As I said, I don't plan on having to travel that often, mainly for about 4-5 conventions a year and maybe a family vacation. So I don't want an AF that won't cover itself in benefits. That's why I said not a high one.

 

I will definitely be keeping an eye out for any new cards and will probably ask this question again in about a year.

Citi Premier
%3 on all travel including gas.
And gives you %2 back on dining and entertainment while your out and about. $95.00 af. Think it's worth it.
The Citi Prestige is out of this world if you want hang with the af.

Re: Best Travel Card

Maybe a CSP? I've read that the travel category is fairly broad, also dont you get 2X points on dining? If that doesnt work maybe a PRG, 2X gas, dining and 3X flights.

USAA Platinum Mastercard: $8000
American Express HHonors no AF: $12000
American Express Premier Rewards Gold: NPSL
American Express Platinum: NPSL
US Bank Cash+ Visa Sig: $5100|Chase Freedom: $7000|Chase Sapphire Reserve: $10000

Re: Best Travel Card

Amex travel website usually costs more than other options out there. I don't get it, you are actually paying more in order to get the extra points. Not worth it!
