Guru’s Wrap-up
If you get this welcome bonus to show up while booking a Delta flight, it is definitely worth going for, if you are eligible. This is a big bonus and the best one we have seen so far, plus the annual fee is waived the first year. That should be a great deal for those who fly Delta often.
However, it could still be worth applying through referrals from friends and family members, as they can earn a big referral bonus of up to 40,000 points, on top of the welcome offer that you get. You can also check for NLL offers, if you have already had this card in the past.
