I have it

Overall good card to have? It doesn't look like it's good for points earnings. Do you keep it for the lounge access?

I do as well. If you travel Delta most of the time, and take advantage of the benefits (eg pre-check/global entry refund, clubs, discount on delta services, wireless insurance benefit, status bumps, it’s worth it). I don’t fly nearly as much as I did pre-pandemic, but I still find the benefits are worth the fees.

125k delta points are worth, what, $50? I’d go with an AMEX platinum card instead which has Delta and centurion lounge access too, plus priority pass, CLEAR, and other benefits.

I don’t think it is. I didn’t receive a sign on bonus so no additional consideration was exchanged from my understanding of my law classes.
