I’ve written extensively about the $395 annual fee Atmos Rewards Summit Visa Infinite Credit Card, which I consider to be the most lucrative airline credit card out there. This card isn’t just for Alaska Airline loyalists. With partners like American Airlines and British Airways, Atmos Rewards points can be extremely useful for booking reward flights…

Completely agree on the "real" value of Atmos. In a world where a) long-haul redemptions are becoming harder and harder to find and b) domestic carriers are charging $300-$400 for RT domestic short-haul, these redemptions are the real money savers!
This is the type of title to come from travel Instagram personalities who say redeeming points for flights is "free"
Post title equivalent to insurance defense attorneys billing 5,000 hours a year because every 1-second email is billed separately as 0.1 hours.
Keep harping hard on this Alaska sweet spot Ben, until they devalue it pronto.
That's patently untrue. My associates write and send the emails and I spend 1-second reviewing them.
For those of you still wondering how Ben went from humble avgeek to globe-trotter and 5-star yacht-cruiser, look no further.
Payola is sticky and grubby, but the money spends just like honest dough!
"Got a mistress who lives less than 700-miles away? Go see her 11-times with this 1 credit card sign up!" [There fixed it for ya..]
Can be extremely useful if you have the right travel pattern, so thank you Ben!
While I would normally call out Ben's clickbait and this title really seems to falls into clickbait.
It's actually the sad truth of miles and points these days including AS miles.
This is the most useful use of AS miles lately.
Gone are the days of JAL or other longhaul premium cabin and crazy stopover using AS miles.
Sadly 23+ short haul domestic is the only usefulness of AS miles recently.
Thus, this isn't clickbait. The irony here is the useless miles we earn these days.
NGL - I had higher expectations from the 25k/100k companion passes last year. Didn't account for dismal partner biz class availability at reasonable rates. Don't think I will end up using these companion certificates before they expire later this year.
"Is this the world’s sexist redemption?"
*sexiest* redemption.
is it really so hard to use a spelling and grammar check in 2026? this sort of. thing happens enough here that I had to ask.
Wow Ben is getting creative with his credit card ads.

Exaggerate much? Yes, technically true, but click bait.
