My thoughtsThis is a okay no-fee option if you fly Delta regularly and want to earn a handful of miles without paying an annual fee. The welcome offer is small compared to the other Delta cards, so I'd mainly recommend it as a long-term keeper for the 20% in-flight savings rather than opening it primarily for the welcome offer.

My thoughtsIf you fly Delta even a few times a year, the free checked bag perk alone can easily offset the annual fee. One round-trip with a checked bag saves you $70, so it pays for itself quickly. This is a solid card for people who at least occasionally fly Delta and want real everyday value.

My thoughtsThe annual companion certificate is the standout perk on this card. If you use it, it can easily pay for the annual fee all by itself. Add in the free checked bags, flight credits, and Global Entry credit and there's a lot of value for regular Delta flyers.

My thoughtsThis is the card for die-hard Delta loyalists who want the best of the best. Delta Sky Club access plus Centurion Lounge access when flying Delta is a huge perk, and the annual companion certificate in First Class or Comfort+ is incredibly valuable. The annual fee is high, but frequent Delta travelers can absolutely justify it.

My thoughtsThis is the entry-level Delta business card and it's a great first-year card. The $0 intro annual fee means you can earn a big welcome offer and evaluate the card before deciding whether to keep it. The $150 annual fee after year one is easy to justify if you fly Delta even once or twice a year, since the free checked bag perk alone can offset it in a single trip for a family. The $150 Delta Stays credit is another simple way to get value without thinking too hard. And since it's a business card, it doesn't count toward your 5/24 number, which is a real bonus if you're trying to keep those personal card slots open for Chase cards.

My thoughtsThis is the sweet spot in the Delta business card lineup. The annual companion certificate is the standout perk, and if you travel with a partner even once a year, it can easily offset the $350 annual fee by itself. The $200 Delta Stays credit is another easy win. And like all Delta business cards, it doesn't count toward your 5/24 number.

My thoughtsThis is the top of the Delta business card lineup and it's built for die-hard Delta loyalists. The Delta Sky Club access is the biggest perk. You also get Centurion Lounge access when flying Delta, which is even better. The companion certificate on this card is better too — it covers First Class and Comfort+ in addition to Main Cabin, which makes it more valuable than the one on the Platinum Business card. Add in the $2,500 MQD Headstart, the $250 Delta Stays credit, the Resy credit, and the rideshare credit and there's a real case to be made that the $650 fee is justifiable for frequent Delta flyers. And of course, it's a business card, so it doesn't count toward 5/24.
