Delta and American Express have credit cards. We saw some fantastic limited time welcome offers on these cards a couple of weeks ago, and I wanted to recap them as the clock is running out.
Delta SkyMiles is not my favorite mileage currency, but I appreciate that the miles in the program have a value based on how you redeem them. It could make these bonuses pretty rewarding if they could get you a lot of travel.
There are limited time offers on six Delta Amex cards. These are some of the best offers we have seen on these cards.
After spending $2,000 on the Delta SkyMiles Gold American Express Card in the first three months, the card will give you 70,000 SkyMiles. The card has an annual fee of $299, but it is free for the first year.
First checked bag free, priority boarding, savings on inflight purchases, and more are offered by the Gold Delta Amex.

You can get the bonus on each Delta American Express card once. You could get both the business and personal version of the Gold, Platinum, and Reserve over time, which opens up lots of opportunities. Most of the people should be eligible for the bonuses on some of the cards.
Amex's standard card application rules apply.
Which Delta Amex offer is best depends on what you are looking for and what your travel profile is like. As far as my general advice goes.
SkyMiles can be redeemed for at least one cent each toward the cost of a Delta ticket. If you accumulate 100,000 SkyMiles, you will get a minimum of $700-1,100 worth of airfare.
Delta Amex cards are offering increased bonuses that are among the best we have seen. You can earn up to 100,000 SkyMiles, which will get you a minimum of $700-1,100 worth of airfare on Delta, using the Pay With Miles feature.
I recommend picking up a Delta Amex with this promotion. If you are cashing out miles at one cent each, that is a lot of value.
