Why We Like This Card
This card is an excellent option for travelers aiming to combine travel rewards with luxury perks while not paying an exorbitant annual fee.
Key benefits include an annual Companion Certificate for a Main Cabinround-trip flight to select destinations which can significantly offset the cost of travel. The Companion Certificate requires payment of the government-imposed taxes and fees of between $22 and $250 (for itineraries with up to four flight segments). Baggage charges and other restrictions apply. See terms and conditions for details. The card also provides $2,500 Medallion® Qualification Dollars with MQD Headstart each Medallion Qualification Year and earn $1 MQD for each $20 in purchases on your Delta SkyMiles® Platinum American Express Card with MQD Boost to get closer to Status next Medallion Year.
Companion Certificate
The card’s Delta travel perks are rounded out with a free checked bag, up to $120 in Global Entry/TSA PreCheck® fee credit every 4 years, and the potential for complimentary upgrades.
