Yada, yada, yada with Chase and CSR already. The card was the must-have card for millennials when it launched 4 years ago, but now the sign-up bonus is lower, the card's annual fee is higher and the benefits don't stack up the Amex Platinum. Plus, Platinum really seems to be going out of their way to add new incentives during the Trumpvirus, including all sorts of incentives to renew. I haven't seen any of that coming from Chase.

The transfer partners and the earnings rate make this the best card out there. You can do your research on this site and a bunch of meaningless blogs where children write about their anecdotal travel experiences to game Google or you can just be done and move along. The $300 travel credit makes this worthwhile, but if you cannot get comfortable with a $550 card, then go for Sapphire Preferred.

I take all of these points and transfer them to Hyatt. With the virus and everything, I don't see them ever going anywhere else for some time, especially since I anticipate traveling within driving distance until 2022. The main difference is that this card gives primary rental car coverage; the Hyatt card gives a free night. Otherwise, it is a bit of a wash, especially since I always get back $300 in travel credits that offset the annual fee. Both great cards.
