Yikes, good question. Hopefully we get some more input, but I would think something from Barclays would be in the running.

3 options include:

US Airways (Get this ASAP if you want it before Barclay has to drop it due to the merger with American, which could be any day now).

Lufthansa - 35,000 bonus but it goes to 50k occasionally

Barclay Arrival World Mastercard with $89 Annual Fee. This one is a fixed value card, but you get an effective rate of 2.2 points per dollar on it.

I think Citi has Mastercards as well so let me check.

Ya, the American Airlines card is a mastercard as well. So a good strategy could be to secure the US Airways card now. Get that bonus. Then get the AA card as well. You'll have about 60,000 miles between the two of them on the merged airline.

Dear Blake,

Welcome to your new
US Airways Dividend Miles® World MasterCard® account.

Your new card should arrive in the mail approximately 7 to 10 days.

Good information in this thread. I am looking to start using a credit card exclusively (stop using checking acct debit card) and looking for something with flexible points. I will probably spent $3-4K per month but need something that is accepted everywhere with a good point system.

Chase or Capital One or possibly Barclays?
