Re: Credit card air miles recommendation

A few things to consider:
1) Get whatever card goes with the airline you fly the most. You fly United, get the United Chase card. Fly Delta, get the Amex Sky Miles card. Fly US, get the Barclay's card.
2) Can you pay the balance in FULL every month? If no, do not get an airline affinity card as the interest rates on those cards range from about 14% to as high as 19% APR.
3) Do you have status on an airline? If no, consider getting one of the more premium airline cards - one which gives you priority boarding and one that gives you a free bag when you use that card to buy an airline ticket.
