I was going to tell you Barclaycard Arrival Plus but it looks like it’s no longer an option. I get 2x points on all purchases and pay for travel with points
If you're paying the annual fee, you'd get the better value with Citi Double Cash.
They are both cash back cards at their root.

I might be moving on from Amex gold. Planning a trip, and Amex point redemptions are more expensive than Chase for flight/hotels by a long shot. This always seems to be the case when I compare too.
I also tried booking a rental car on Amex. That process is a joke. Their website wouldn’t let me use the points, so I asked their online agent for help. She explained the process is that they charge you the rental in full up front, then 48 hours after you turn in your car you call Amex to get a credit. My trip would be a couple months from now, so essentially you float the cost, then they hope you forget to call for credit. Anyone else dealt with that?
