Best Credit Cards For Travelers For 2019

WHETHER YOU ASPIRE to amass millions of frequent-flyer mile points or just want a rock-solid credit card that offers plenty of travel perks and flexibility, there’s a card that suits your needs and ambitions. But frequent-flyer miles just scratch the surface of what business travel cards really offer. Airport lounge access, free companion tickets, free upgrades, free bag checks, no foreign transaction fees and priority boarding are just a few ways to win with travel credit cards. Too many choices are usually more of an issue than not enough. Narrowing down the right card to fit both your business and personal needs can present a challenge for even seasoned travelers.

With reward points and travel perks in mind, here are some of the best credit cards for travelers for 2019.

PERFECT FOR BIG SPENDERS who want to quickly rack up reward points, the Business Platinum Card from American Express OPEN offers 50 percent points on purchases of $5,000 or more. But it also offers 35 percent of your points back when used on qualified flights. There’s also a $200 airline fee credit and an annual $200 baggage fee credit good on the use of a single airline. That kind of perk works well for travelers accustomed to flying the same airline for business and pleasure.

Although Amex currently offers a signup bonus of up to 75,000 rewards points after qualifying purchases, travelers love the card’s free access to the Centurion Lounge and The International American Express Lounge. And to sweeten the deal when traveling, this card also offers five times the rewards points on flights and prepaid hotels on amextravel.com.
