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 a $2,500 MQD head start to help frequent flyers reach elite status faster while earning $1 MQD for each $20 spent on the card.
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. Cardholders also get up to $10 in rideshare & Resy statement credits every month (a total of $120 each, totaling $240) and 15% off when booking award travel on Delta flights.
