    The Ritz Carlton card doesn’t have a $300 travel credit. It’s a $300 incidental airline credit that can be used towards baggage fees, seat upgrades, airport lounge memberships. The CSR has a $300 credit that can be used directly on airline tickets.

    @PointsPlayTravel Nice Video Dom. I am planning to get one of these two cards since they are both really good. I am new to the credit card game and had Amex Gold,bilt, and Venture X as my main travel cards. I don't have any Chase cards at the moment, which is another reason I want to get one before I hit the 5/24 Chase rule. RC is overall better for me, but it takes at least one year before it can be PC; CSR is harder to adjust the AF compared to RC, but it's a Chase premium card that earn and use Chase UR point while also the 3x on other airline/travel is really nice. Since Both cards will give me unlimited access to Sapphire Lounge (based in Boston), it will make it even harder for me to decide on which card I am getting. Any suggestions?

    • @PointsPlayTravel
      @PointsPlayTravel 5 місяців тому

      I believe the insurance provided by both is the same. Also neither of these cards come with cell phone protection. The ritz card earns Marriott points, but pairing the ritz card with a CSP is the beat way to go to capitalize on all benefits when referring to this video

    The thing is I just don't see the benefit to using the Amex platinum for purchases. You get 1x on everything that's not those travel categories. If i'm paying $700 a year for a card, I want it to be my daily spender, and with that kind of annual fee, there's 0 reason why they can't add in 3x on groceries or gas or something at a minimum. I'll stick with the Venture X or Altitude Reserve.

      @crimsonk3178 5 місяців тому

      @@ranktank45 My guess is that Amex has a mid-tier gold card which technically is a cc for all the food and grocery purchases...If Plat has a multiplier on dining it would be destroying the gold card tbh. I believe Plat is really a coupon card and luxury travel card for those who fly a lot and stay in different places. While CSR and its lower-tier CSP had some overlap in features, it really did not make sense to hold both CSP and CSR at the same time.

    @joelcouvertier1850 7 місяців тому

    The fact that a card works better for you, doesn't make it a better one overall. For me make no sense having multiple premium travel cards in your personnal setup, because you won't make enough points to justify each annual fee. CSR is a card for people that only make purchases with it, or that have different ones with no annual fee to earn more points, and use them along with this one to get all the luxurius benefit that this card offer. CSR by itself have more value, but is recommended to have a high income to have one in your wallet. At the end of the day, is the top-tier premium cc that Chase offer. It's not for everyone.

    • @PointsPlayTravel

      Either one of these cards works better in everyone’s own unique circumstances. Like they say, your mileage may vary. Though, when you compare just these two cards against each other, there’s a lot of overlap. I’m not sure how much you watched, but I broke down the details of both cards, and for me, since I travel with points, I’d prefer the Ritz Card paired with a CSP which that combo is still technically cheaper than just a CSR
