Hey guys! I am looking for recommendations for a credit card specifically for travel perks/points. I prefer flying with the OneWorld carriers like AA, Alaska, BA, Finnair, QR, etc. Appreciate any input.

Amex platinum is by far the best if you enjoy lounges. Also has other perks which offset the high annual fee. Otherwise the Chase Sapphire Preferred or Reserve are best. Dm for a referral for either if you want

Totally fair, ventureX was the go-to winner when they offered 100k bonus point sign-up and $200 Airbnb credit but the later has since been dropped and the former I believe is lowered. Still I think it’s a great option. Another small bonus is that you can add authorized users for free with ventureX that also gives them lounge access so helpful if you have a larger family that travels at different times

Personally I love my CSR.

Travel doesn’t just mean flights - it’s Uber / Lyft even.
You can redeem points on a lot of stuff - the flight portal is very flexible.
Service is great.
Visa is acceptable globally.
And it’s cheaper than Amex Plat (695) at 550$

Go with any AA credit card since CC spending counts toward elite status for AA specifically.

Have you considered an Alaska Airlines Visa Card 👀 we are a One World partner and our cards offer a companion fare for Alaska Airlines flights. Currently there’s a promo for 40,000 miles and an in air promo for 62,000 miles. As well as 1 free checked bag for you and up to six guest on your reservation.
