You should bring the Amex green into the convo too. Basically mirrors CSR earning rates. If you are looking to redeem for maximum value the reward portal doesn't matter anyways as you are transferring to partners
A non-metal <1 gram card? What do you take us for
I have both the CSR (with CFU) and Amex gold and think it’s an unbeatable combo.
If you are delta loyal, the annual fee for Amex plat pays for itself if you Uber as well once a month - $200 airline; $200 Uber credits; $100 sales credit. This means you are only paying $50 for lounge access. IMO if you go to the lounge 2-3x/year, the $50 is more than worth it.
If you find value in CSR (great card), why not have both? Just My 2 cents.
OW - that’s valid. Point well taken.
OP - personal card includes the airline credit.
I use the amex gold + plat combo. Plat only for airlines + card perks (uber credit, airline credit which is useful if you go international and get hit with overweight fees, and saks credit which works for anything bought on the saks website). Gold is my restaurant + everything else card. Really helps maximize points earnings
Also have a marriott visa card that also acts as a backup at places that dont accept amex but the number of places that dont accept is pretty infrequent at this point
Plat + car is a super strong combo to really strong combo to take advantage of the 5x travel points and you're only "losing" put on a 1x point per restaurant compared to the gold
i use amex plat for flights and amex offers, csr for everything else.
Amex plat + CSR is the power move
