Looking for a new credit card as I’ll be doing a lot of local travel soon with weekly hotel stays. Currently have CFU, live in a United hub and probably planning on doing Hyatt over Marriott. Considering we book through Concur, best travel CC?

I use Bonvoy when I stay at a Marriott and previously used Chase Sapphire for others. I switched to Hyatt just before pandemic, so when I’m confident I’ll hit the minimum spend for bonus I’ll grab the world of Hyatt one and use that at Hyatts.

Also got the Hyatt card, use it for my Hyatt stays.

Visa Saphire

Go for ventureX

Problem with Venture X is that you have to book through portal to get 10x else 2x and with CSR at least you get 3x if you can justify the fees

You are a perfect chase card holder if you will be using United and Hyatt. Up to you to decide on CSP vs CSR (if the higher fee is worth it for you). I’d say grab Venture X for the SUB and the get either CSP or CSR. If me, Venture X and CSP

My company is paying for one credit card. I'm leaning towards Amex Platinum given the large 100k sign up bonus at the moment (which I'll be able to hit). People lean towards CSR because of the 3x on dining but I don't eat out that much (and additional perks, but I prefer the Amex for that).

Should I grab the Amex Plat and not think twice?? Thanks!!
