Does anyone have a travel credit card they recommend? Any thoughts on Capital one Venture ?
Capital One recently shared with me that I am eligible to upgrade from my Quicksilver card.

I have the venture card. The bonus points allowed me to stay in London for 5 nights with points- no out of pocket expenses. This was in January of 2020, so I’m not sure what the current promotions are.

I also have the aadvantage card and the Hilton Amex. They’ve all accrued a ton of points

I have had m the venture one for years and like it. I’d recommend the venture over venture one (earn more miles per $). I also just got the venture X. High annual fee but perks outweigh that.

Thank you for sharing !

I have Venture and Chase Sapphire Reserve. I’m going on about one trip per month this year (lots of long weekends and a couple week-long trips) thanks in large part to the points and rewards from these cards.

If you’re looking at Capital One I would definitely go with Venture X, though: the perks are better and it evens out to cost less than the Venture card ($95 annual fee on Venture, versus $395 annual fee on Venture X with automatic $300 back on travel annually plus another 10,000 annual points which is $100 of travel credit).

Depends how often you travel. High frequency? CSR or Amex Platinum. Low/medium - CSP is fine.

The new VentureX! So many great perks, plus the new lounges! 👍🏼

I just pulled the trigger and got the Chase Sapphire Reserve after only having the Costco Citi Visa. The benefits of the Chase Sapphire Reserve have been most reassuring when I have been traveling.

I have capital venture X and CSP I think is a really good combo

I have had several rounds of interviews for a role at Visa London office.

TBH, that round seemed as if they want to make sure I have understood the job well. And there has been radio silence after that. Any idea how to read this? I have another offer and deliberating if i should just accept that.
