I've been in the world of points and miles for a long time, and I've been asked more times than I can count which rewards credit card travelers should get first.
My answer is almost always the same: Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card (see rates and fees).
The Sapphire Preferred has been around for over 16 years, but that doesn't mean it is stale. In fact, it just got a refresh that made it an even stronger card to start with while retaining a low $95 annual fee.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
