First, can you make the spend?

Second, do you plan a trip next year to use it on? If not, I'd take the straight miles.

Can I ask how are you seeing the option for both?

 

I'm only seeing the two comfort flight tickets + 50k points option in my dashboard.  Maybe there's more than one option for certain profiles.

 

I would think the tickets and points would be the better value option, but I'm not in a position to use the tickets before they expire - which I think is Jan 2028 if I read correctly.  I have plans.  I'd rather secure the 125k-130k point option if I could snag it.

the other offer I am seeing is when you log in experian.com account and look for no ding declines and then you will see amex offers. and I think I will likely to go with the delta platinum for 90K miles + $300 statement credit with 4K spend , thats alot better than meeting 10K spending requirement.
