Is it a good deal?
It definitely could be. NerdWallet values Delta miles at 1.2 cents each, meaning these sign-up offers can offer a value ranging between $780 and $1,140, depending on the card and how you redeem your miles. It's possible to squeeze even more value if you use American Express’ TakeOff 15 program. It provides a 15% discount when booking award travel through delta.com or the Fly Delta app. Terms apply.
Plus, you may find the timing and length of these offers convenient, as they allow you to capitalize on major spending events like back-to-school shopping, seasonal home improvements, holiday shopping and more.
Still, a Delta credit card is only a good fit if you prefer the airline over others and can make full use of the card’s perks and rewards to offset any annual fee.
