Thanks for the detailed response, I was planning on grabbing the Barclays but as I'm wanting to use my points for international flights it looks like I'll go with the chase sp instead.

I think there are additional perks for a chase banker as well. With that in mind, think ill be doing the sapphire/freedom combo.

Don't you get discounts for using chases online features to redeem pernts?

Teddy's example omits two substantial benefits available to the Barclay card. First, Barclay refunds 10 percent of the redeemed points back to the user. (15,830 points in the example.) Additionally, you would also receive 2X points when you purchase the ticket. (3166 points in the example, for a total of 18,966 extra points.) That evens the cost of the trip. I prefer the Barclay's card coupled with an Amex SPG card. (Also 1:1 airline transfer, but w/ a 5000 point rebate per 20,000 point transfer.)
