✏️ My Thoughts:
Delta was recently named the #1 Airline in the US from a The Points Guy study and from personal experience, flying the airline is usually more enjoyable than flying with competitors like American Airlines and Southwest. With that, I wanted to explore cards that have high-synergy with the Delta SkyMiles line of cards.

When discussing these cards with my editor, I learned of a powerful duo that he has in his wallet - the AmEx Gold card + the Delta SkyMiles Platinum card. High in annual fees? Yes. However, there is more than enough value loaded on both of these cards to offset those fees for the right person. Things like 4X back on all dining/grocery spend, free checked bags, a companion certificate, 15% off all delta flights, and more.

Stick around for this in-depth card analysis, in which I walk through the duo from top-to-bottom, explaining the best way to utilize both cards. In my opinion, this duo carries more weight than its peerset. Get positive value while flying the #1 airline for free or heavily discounted? Sign me up.
