Agree w csc1
Other travel cards - chase sapphire and amex BUT do your research if those make sense for you considering the annual fee and type of travel bookings you will do
Note- amex wont necessarily boost your credit score. They dont give you a "credit limit" so whenever your credit is reviewed, it will show as 100% used in amex regardless of the balance on it. It also wont add to your "available credit" total. Example: balance of 2k will show 2k/2k used up, while other cards will show 2k/credit limit
Pro
I don’t know if any necessarily boost your credit score since you already have to have a good credit score to get the best travel cards like Capital One, Chase and Amex. My credit score reverts back to the original score prior to applying in the 790-810s
I switched from Chase Sapphire Reserve to Capital One Venture X. Lower annual fee and blanket 2x points more aligned to my spending now especially since I use the Amex Gold for groceries and restaurant
Ditto on CapOne Venture X! I got my card just 1 week after being approved and it’s already paid for itself for my honeymoon coming up!
