Both have been great. I would recommend going with the United card because you can get more "bang for your buck". Delta gives you 50k miles but Delta's one-way flights use up 40k - it is ridiculous! Whereas I just booked a United roundtrip flight using my points from Denver to Orange County and it was only 37k. Unlike Abigale, I have not had any issues receiving my points! They came quickly after you spent the $1,000 in 3 months or whatever it was. I say go for it! :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17683070291929580618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1987399996920911855.post-21299120810508377672014-06-16T10:39:35.071-07:002014-06-16T10:39:35.071-07:00Ohhh snap, that's good to know!! :) My cousin ...Ohhh snap, that's good to know!! :) My cousin uses southwest and really loves it. I don't know how much you fly southwest but that could be something to look at. I'm looking at American Express at the moment, but I have to get Tom on board first haha. I'll put out an update if we figure it out!! :) Thanks girly!Hopeful Wanderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10576389279416682454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1987399996920911855.post-28353256265033007792014-06-16T10:32:42.221-07:002014-06-16T10:32:42.221-07:00Do not use United's miles card.

They owe us 40,000 points and refuse to give us credit for them. :/ We are looking into other cards too, so let us know what you find.

I don't really want an annual fee, I'm poor as well haha I wish it didn't take so much time to rack up points haha i'm impatient as well. But I think I'm looking at it more as a long term thing anyways. Since we've chosen to do long distance we will have to do some serious traveling at least once a year. So after a few years, with both of us flying back and forth we might be able to rack up some serious points and hopefully get a few freebies out of it. That's the plan anyways haha!!<br />Hopeful Wanderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10576389279416682454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1987399996920911855.post-41918220613755654872014-06-16T03:56:52.194-07:002014-06-16T03:56:52.194-07:00I travel a lot for my med school interviews, so I ...I travel a lot for my med school interviews, so I got a triple A card through my parents. You get extra points for flights, hotels and gas, and there's no annual fee :) <br /><br />My fiancé uses discover. It's nice because you get points back double on something new each quarter- for the summer it's home improvement ;-) unfortunately racking up points takes time and it may be awhile before you benefit from your card use. Anyways good luck, I hope you share any new info you find on the blog for your fellow poor travelers! <br /><br /><br />P.S. I believe Chase has a good travel option as well. I didn't get it because it has a annual fee and I am too poor for such thingsGeorgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09168378030141511010noreply@blogger.com
