I use my credit card everywhere for everything.  The points add up so quickly.  I haven't paid for an airline ticket in so long because of mileage points accumulated.  Besides the rewards you also have the guarantee of AmEx when you purchase. … read full review »

We just went through a very disappointing Delta Airlines experience. So bad we are selling our Maui timeshare so we do not have to fly 15 hours to arrive at 9PM after taking off at 5:30AM EST and arrive to get the last available suite for the 2 week period we own. — — We use our… read full review »

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… read full review »

The AmEx Delta Platinum is is my favorite credit card ever.  I charge absolutely everything on it and pay it off in full religiously.  This would not be a good card for someone who carries a balance, as the interest rate is high.  Also, the only reason to have this card is if you like to travel internationally, which I do.  The reason I say this is that the annual fee for the card is $150, and Delta is about to start charging for FF miles redemption.  If all you do is fly domestic, it means the miles aren't worth much, but if you fly first class internationally, the… read full review »
