Our Review:
This Platinum Delta SkyMiles Credit Card from our partners at American Express is a quick way to earn 60,000 bonus miles, 10,000 MQMs and a $100 statement credit. This special offer expires 7/6/2016.
The annual fee of $195 is not waved, but if you’re an avid traveler, it’s worth the fee since you can check your first bag for free on every Delta flight. Earn 2X the miles on every Delta purchase and 1X the miles for every other eligible purchase.
The Facts:

Verdict:
This card is great for active travelers that will take advantage of the benefits. If you don’t travel as frequently, the Chase Sapphire Preferred card will probably serve your needs better.
