Hello all,

I wanted to start a topic here about all different miles reward credit cards you might have. I think that with all the assortment of all different offers we'll need more opinions from people to make a decision on what card to get to earn miles.

Personally, I like Miles Card by Discover.

MILES BY DISCOVER® CARD

0%
Reg APR:
10.99%
Annual Fee:
$0

This offer has no block out dates when miles redeem for travel, you can earn miles on EVERY dollar virtually, offer 0% APR for some time based on your credit.

Post your cards, and share your opinions about them.

Hi guys,

I consider myself as a frequent flyer, and I have to use different airlines. So far I found out that the best miles card for me is Capital One No Hassle Miles Rewards.
The main reason because you earn 1.25 miles per each dollar you spend, your earned miles are unlimitted, have no expiration dates and you won't have any restrictions on seats and blackout dates.
However Capital One No hassle Miles may have high APR, but I'm fine with mine of 9.4%.

Capital One is my favorite! What is your miles card?

I use American Express membership rewards which can be added to the American Express Card for $40 per year.
You earn 1 point for every dollar spent. AMEX partners include Southwest, Delta, Continental, USAir, TWA Hawaii Airlines, Mariott, Hilton, Best Western, Starwood, Avis, National, and Budget.
This is a good deal if you charge a decent amount on your card and especially if you travel for work.

Note:

American Express reward points can be transferred to air line mile programs, such as Delta’s SkyMiles, for a low fee.

As you trade your points for a ticket, be ready to pay sales taxes and reservation fees for, in most cases, they will not be covered by the miles program.

Call the airline company before you transfer your points to your member account and find out details about their services. In most cases point transfers will not be reversible.

Will I get the same amount of miles as I’m the amount of points I’ll transfer? Or is there some kind of a formula which I’ll use to convert points into miles?

Hey folks,
I think Chase Freedom may be cosidered as a good miles credit card. Now they offer triple rewards program, whn you can have triple points as an Airline reward or transfer them into cash. Isn't great!

I really like our Starwood American Express credit card. The Starpoints give us the flexibility to redeem for free hotel stays or airline miles. We've used our points to stay in San Diego for a week and I've flown to San Antonio for free too.
