American Express - Delta Skymiles Platinum —
You should only carry/use this card if you intend on using the miles for international travel on a partner airline. We used Delta FF miles to book a flight from Boston to Bali on partner airline Singapore Airlines. We flew first class on Delta (Boston to Los Angeles) and business class on Singapore (Los Angeles to Singapore to Bali). The business class on Singapore was far superior to the first class on Delta - night and day. We figured if we had to pay for the business class tickets on Singapore, it would have cost us in excess of $10K, so the use of the Delta FF miles was well worth carrying and using the card despite the $135 annual fee. If you fly often on Delta and are a medallion member, it might make sense to carry and use this card for the bonus miles, but due to recent cutbacks in capacity, it might be a lot harder to use your hard earned FF miles to book travel.
