Our Verdict

All of the offers are quite strong, although we’ve seen much better offers on the Gold card before so I wouldn’t consider getting these now and those come around frequently. Previously we’ve seen a bonus of 70,000 miles + 10,000 MQM on the Reserve card and 70,000 miles + $100 on the Platinum card. So it looks like the above offers are better than those (at least when using a referral link). We have seen an offer of 80,000 miles + 5k MQM + $100 statement credit on the Delta Business Platinum recently.
