Gold Delta SkyMiles American Express – 70,000 Mile Offer, Annual Fee Waived First Year

The Delta SkyMiles Gold American Express has a new limited-time offer. Highlights:

70,000 bonus miles after $2,000 in purchases in the first 3 months. Limited-time offer expires 04/28/2021.
70,000 Skymiles is worth at least $700 in Delta airfare. With this card, you get a minimum value out of your Skymiles via the “Pay with Miles” option. 70,000 Skymiles can reduce the price of your Delta ticket by $700 at the very least. (5,000 mile = $50 minimum redemption.) You can still book traditional award tickets and possibly get better value.
New feature – $100 Delta flight credit after $10,000 in purchases on your card in a calendar year.
First checked bag free. Delta now charges $30 for the first checked bag, each way. That means this perk is worth $60 per person each roundtrip. For a family of four, this perk is worth $240 per person each roundtrip.
Annual fee is waived for the first year, then $99.

Here is the new rewards structure on card spend:

2X miles at restaurants worldwide, including takeout and delivery.
2X miles at U.S. supermarkets.
2X miles on Delta purchases. 2 miles for every dollar spent on eligible purchases made directly with Delta.
1 miles per dollar spent on all other purchases.

I will be adding this limited-time offer to the Top 10 Best Credit Card Bonus Offers.
