146. One Card From Each Bank: Our Top Picks

Which credit card would you choose if you could only pick one from each major bank? In this episode, the Travel Mom Squad shares their top picks and explains why each card works best for their individual travel habits, home airports, and spending priorities. While there isn’t a single right answer for everyone, their discussion gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how they approach selecting cards for real-world travel.

 

The Squad debates and compares cards across categories, weighing benefits, earning potential, and annual fees. They highlight why some cards are better suited for certain spending patterns or travel goals, and what subtle perks can make a difference for one traveler versus another. As a bonus, they also reveal which hotel and airline card they would pick if they could only select one, giving you insight into how to think about those decisions as well.
