If you're looking to earn a big stash of Delta miles, right now is a great time to grab a Delta American Express credit card. That's because from now through April 2, 2025, new cardmembers can earn up to 110,000 miles on these cards. For my family, this offer comes at the perfect time — this is the next card my husband is applying for, as he just changed his airline of choice from JetBlue to Delta.

The family of Delta credit cards offer a number of benefits, so you can both travel in luxury and save money along the way. Despite the hefty annual fee on some of these cards, their benefits can easily offset the costs.
Here are some of our favorite Delta credit card perks...
- TakeOff15 — You'll get a 15% discount on all frequent flyer awards flown by Delta. For instance, let's say you're looking to book a trip that costs 25,000 Delta SkyMiles. By being a Delta cardmember, you'll actually only have to pay 21,200 miles. This benefit is available on all the Delta credit cards on our list above.
- Free checked bag — The primary Delta credit cardmember, plus up to eight travel companions on the same reservation, each get one checked bag for free on all Delta flights. For a family of four, this can be a significant savings on a roundtrip flight. This benefit is available on all the Delta credit cards on our list above.
- Companion certificate — With the Delta Platinum or Delta Platinum Business cards, you'll receive an annual companion certificate which can be used for a Main Cabin roundtrip ticket flight within the U.S., and to Mexico, the Caribbean or Central America. If you have a Delta Reserve or Delta Reserve Business card, this certificate can be used on a First Class, Delta Comfort+ or Main Cabin roundtrip flight to the same destinations. In either case, you'll have to pay taxes and fees of no more than $80 for a roundtrip domestic flight, or no more than $250 for a roundtrip international flight.
- Airport lounge access — Those with the Delta Reserve or Delta Reserve Business cards receive 15 visits per Medallion Year to Delta Sky Clubs when flying on a same day Delta-marketed or Delta-operated flight. Unlimited Sky Club access can be unlocked after spending $75,000 on the card in a calendar year. Cardmembers also receive access to American Express Centurion Lounges and Escape Lounges when flying Delta.
- Resy dining credits — Delta Platinum and Delta Platinum Business cardmembers receive up to $120 per calendar year (in portions of up to $10 per month) toward eligible purchases at Resy restaurants within the U.S. Delta Reserve and Delta Reserve Business cardmembers get up to $240 per calendar year (up to $20 per month). Enrollment required.
- Rideshare credit — Those with the Delta Platinum, Delta Platinum Business, Delta Reserve or Delta Reserve Business cards can earn up to $120 in statement credits (up to $10 per month) on U.S. rideshare purchases with select providers. Enrollment required.
- Fee Credit for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck — With the Delta Platinum, Delta Platinum Business, Delta Reserve or Delta Reserve Business cards you'll receive a TSA PreCheck® or Global Entry fee credit.
With these welcome offers and some luxurious money-saving benefits, the Delta credit cards are highly worth considering — even if you only fly Delta once a year. But these offers are only around for a limited time, so make sure to grab them while you can.
