Im interested in getting the AirTran card in August. DW and I would like to go to FL in September.

-What bureau will they pull? (thinking TU)
-Do theywant a certain amount of history with the card you have from thm before they will approve for 2nd?
-Does this card give out good CL's?

-TU (99% certain on this)

-You should have at least 6 months of history (with activity) on your first Barclays card.  

-I've seen them give out $4K limits on 2nd cards when the first card had a $1K limit.  They're generous if you use the original card.  

 

AirTran is no longer offered but you can try Priceline Visa or US Airways MC.  If you don't like US Airways, remember they're a member of Star Alliance and you can use US miles on any of the Star Alliance airlines.  

 

I have the Barclaycard Rewards card but they customized my rewards to get 2 points for every travel purchase.  I'm very happy with it so far.  


Thanks!

 

That rewards card may be the way to go for me!
