Pass. The only way it makes sense is if you use their portal to book your travel spend which is deeply flawed for a few reasons:

1. Hotel/car status does not pass through 3rd party bookings and the stay/rental will not count towards elite qualification.

2. Status does pass through on flight bookings, but in the event of any irrops, the airline usually punts on resolving to the booking party.

Those are dealbreakers to me.

like

OP Yep. Hotels require you to book direct to get any status benefits. You might get lucky here and there with a property letting you access your in-stay amenities (upgraded room, breakfast, lounge, etc.), but that’s not the policy and it’s much rarer to get the points/stay credit

I have the venture x and love it so far! Free global entry, priority pass, $300 annual travel credit, etc. so you definitely easily make back your money and it has a lot of other perks.

like

Have both... Bonus on the VentureX was converted to LifeMiles with a 20% bonus and then used to buy 2 biz class on Turkish airlines that was pricing out at 6.5k total giving about 2 cents per point... Loved CSR when I was travelling and didn't have to use a corp card... Now I most likely drop the CSR and just use VentureX and Amex Bonvoy biz

New pricing awards saved me 25k points for my upcoming trip to 🇹🇷...

I recently moved to Capital One from Venture X from CSR and really loving it. CSR was useless after the first two years, ran out of DoorDash and Lyft offers and they weren’t willing to extend them. DM me for a referral
