What is the best credit card to earn flight points on any airline?
I’m interested in applying for a Citi PremierPass card but not sure if thats the best one. I fly almost every month on a different airline and need to get some points somehow but dont’ know where to start and the “bonus points” associated with my current card requires purchases of (get this) $25,000 to get a flight which is insane.
…
dont hold me to this but i think the credit card companies are partnered up with specific airlines in order to redeem for airline miles
for example i haven’t seen any credit card rewards offered for Southwest Airlines; I’ve seen Delta and Continental
Southwest have their own rewards program but credit card banks like Citi and Chase don’t offer rewards for Southwest
Citi MasterCard (World / Premier Pass), connected to a ThankYou Network account. This card is awesome! You get a point for every dollar you spend, but you also get a point for every mile you fly. And if you pay for someone else’s flight on your card, you get their flight points too! When you get a point, it gets transferred over to the Thank You Network automatically. When you want to book a flight, you sign in to your Thank You Network account, which is connected to Expedia. You can choose any flight (as long as you have enough points) on any airline for any date. I’ve only had the card for about 2 years, but I’ve earned over 50,000 points by buying plane tickets for my family (they reimbursed me, so it didn’t cost me anything, but I still got points). Just make sure you get the right card when you first sign up.
P.S. You can also redeem your points for other things if you want to. You never have to sign up for “flight” points. You just collect points and can use them for anything. If you get the right card, there is also no annual fee.
there are a few good ones out there check out and go under Frequent Flyer miles credit cards and you will have a few to choose from and compare side by side.

Reward credit cards reward you depending on the amount you spend on the credit card. Usually, you can collect rewards through 3 methods. One method involves earning cash back on the card, which is generally a certain percentage of each amount you spend. The next method involves giving points or any other type of token to the customers to accrue. They can then redeem these points for gifts like luggage, cosmetics and other goodies that the credit card company offers. Most of these reward schemes have alluring gifts and huge variety of selections. But the better option is to go for a cash back reward as it allows you to use the money any way you like.
With the AmEx Blue Sky card, you basically earn 1.33% rewards on all spending. And your rewards can be applied to any airline, hotel, etc.
(If you’re not opposed to cash back, the AmEx Blue Cash card might earn you more than Blue Sky.)
The Citi PremierPass earns 1% rewards on all spending and 1 point for every 3 miles you fly (if you purchase the tickets with your PremierPass card).
The Citi PremierPass Elite card has better rewards, but a $75 per year annual fee.
The Capital One No Hassle Miles Ultra for Professionals earns you 2% rewards on all your spending (if you redeem on appropriately priced tickets).
