The Platinum Card® from American Express: Travel fancy

Those rewards get even higher as those who redeem for airfare, hotels, car rentals and cruises through Chase Ultimate Rewards get 25% more value.

You can also earn 10X miles on thousands of hotels through January 2020 and receive up to $100 application fee credit for Global Entry or TSA Pre✓®. The Capital One Venture card also features no blackout dates for any airlines or hotel.

American Express® Gold Card: Dine in style
The American Express® Gold Card focuses on what you eat when you travel and is a food earning beast, with major rewards across dining, grocery shopping, and even food delivery. It is also one of the strongest metal cards out there. Earn 35,000 Membership Rewards® Points after you spend $4,000 on eligible purchases with your new Card within the first 3 months. You'll also always earn 4X Membership Rewards® points** at restaurants worldwide and 4X Membership Rewards® points at U.S. supermarkets (on up to $25,000 per year in purchases, then 1X). The card also gives you $10 in statement credits monthly when you pay with The Gold Card at Grubhub, Seamless, and more, as well as offering a $100 Airline Fee Credit: up to $100 in statement credits per calendar year for incidental fees at one selected qualifying airline.
Whether you are looking to live the high life at an airport lounge, get through airport security with ease, or earn the most you possibly can on your flights, hotels, and dining, these cards are sure to fit the bill.
