British Airways Visa Signature

The British Airways Visa Signature makes the most sense for travelers who fly British Airways, Aer Lingus, or Iberia often enough to use the Avios they earn. The 75,000-Avios welcome bonus after $5,000 in spend within three months is substantial, and up to three statement credits a year on taxes and carrier charges for British Airways reward flights, $100 in economy or $200 in business or first, take aim at one of the biggest costs of redeeming Avios. It's ranked #3 on our Best Airline Credit Cards list. The catch is that earning is narrow: 3x applies only to flights on those three airlines, hotels booked directly earn 2x, and everything else earns 1x. The Travel Together Ticket is valuable but requires $30,000 in spending in a calendar year, which few cardholders will reach. For the $95 annual fee, you also get no foreign transaction fees, 2,500 bonus Avios each account anniversary, and baggage delay and lost luggage coverage.
