Our Verdict

This bonus isn’t unusual to see, but usually it’s 70,000 miles for $5,000 total spend. This requires $7,000 total spend and you only get 5,000 MQM rather than 10,000. Personally I’d just wait for a better offer to come along. If you have any questions, they are probably answered in our post about things you should know about American Express credit cards. I won’t be adding this to the best credit card bonuses available due to better offers on this card being offered previously.
