It is unclear that you are referring to Amex Platinum or Amex Delta Platinum. To my knowledge, the best welcome bonus for Delta Platinum card is 70k delta miles + 10k mqm. Amex Platinum had 100k Membership Rewards point welcome bonus so I assume that’s what you are referring to. Plus x5 earning for airfare is for Amex Platinum not Amex SPG.
Thanks MD1. That’s great advice! I’m going to monitor the sign on bonuses and will see if I can upgrade to the Reserve from the Delta AMEX
Sorry that wasn’t clear! Referring to Delta Platinum (almost took the Amex Platinum offer for the 100k bonus and in hindsight, should have.)
I use Amex Plat and Delta Reserve combo - buy delta tickets and spend enough to hit hurdles for 30k MQMs with Delta card (and delta lounge access) and use Amex plat for all else (grocery, hotels, gas, dining, anything thing that will take it), boingo WiFi, centurion lounge/priority pass when not flying delta - totally worth it for me. Family vacations and long weekends with wife are essentially free
...choice if I’m trying to accumulate skymiles? Or more beneficial to use the SPG AMEX for the 5x point multiplier on airfare and then transfer to Delta?
