Episode Synopsis

Picking the right travel credit card is one of the most important things you can do to travel more with free trips and travel better with unique perks. Maximizing your points and choosing the right card depends on which one best suits your specific travel desires and purchasing behavior. In this episode I discuss the best cards based on the following criteria:

Sign up bonus
Points per dollar for your expenses 
Travel perks for using the card - like lounge access and trip insurance 
Statement credits
Annual fee

We'll discuss airline cards, hotel cards, American Express Platinum, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Sapphire Preferred, and much more.
