For avid globetrotters and big spenders, the British Airways Visa Signature® Card is well worth its annual fee. Because British Airways is a member of the OneWorld travel alliance, you can redeem Avios, the global rewards currency this card uses, with more than a dozen member airlines around the world, including American Airlines. And if you charge more than $30,000 to this card over during a calendar year, you can earn a Travel Together Ticket, which lets you bring a companion for free on the next domestic flight you book with rewards. This ticket is good for two years.
The British Airways Visa Signature® Card also comes with a generous signup bonus: Earn 100,000 Avios after you spend $5,000 on purchases within the first 3 months from account opening. And with no foreign transaction fees, you can also take this card on your next adventure abroad without worrying about the extra costs.
