Smart Travel: Upgrade Your Getaways · Wednesday, September 2, 2026
American Express has launched limited-time welcome offers on Delta SkyMiles credit cards, available through November 4th. The Delta SkyMiles Reserve card includes flight certificates in its welcome offer for the first time, alongside bonus miles, for a $650 annual fee.
“So now through November 4th, American Express has these limited time welcome offers on the Delta Sky Miles cards, including both the personal and the business versions.”
“So this is a bit unusual. It's a $650 annual fee. Ouch.”
“So you spend $10,000 in purchases in the first six months and then you get, blah blah blah, two round trip Delta Comfort flight certificates to the lower 48, Puerto Rico or US Virgin Islands, plus 50,000 bonus miles.”
