New Card for 2015 ( travel in mind )

Now that I have established a good round of cards and have kept all my balances at zero with the exception of my AmEx... I looking to 2015 and intereested in a card for that will give us some bonus points/miles/credits for traveling.

Currently, we do not dine out a lot
We use our AmEx for almost everything besides rent and utilities
I like to carry a balance on one card so I'd like if possible to do a balance transfer

Anyone have a card they could suggest?

I currently have $1500 or so reporting on my AmEx

Thanks for any help!

I would start by reading this post by NewGuy.

It's an excellent guide to start, that way you can pinpoint to what type of cards you're seeking.  Providing more info such as which airlines or alliances, hotels, future destinations, amount of spend, etc. also will help others give advice.

 

I have a lot of travel cards for specific needs so it's hard for me to say that there is only one good travel cardSmiley Happy
