But AMEX travel credit is shite compared to CSR


Agree 100%.. A $900 flight on CSR is only 60k pts where as its 140k through AMEX.

I just want the Amex for the points to either transfer to partners or to buy gift cards, plus all the travel credits with airlines, uber, and the likes.


Still can't decide between Gold and Plat though. Really don't know about the 5k spend for Platinum, especially with just getting the Ink Preferred and having a 5k spend with that.

I use to think this until I started flying to Asia with a free stop over for 80K Amex MR pts and then 92K Amex pts direct round trip from Houston to Tokyo in first class on ANA (normally cost $23k).

I think it’s an easy choice, quickly get the Gold and then maybe do Plat next year. Only $2k spend for 50k MR with a referral link. Either way, it’s going to take about a week to get your card so you need to hurry up
