United Airlines has developed a range of credit card options, with the United Quest℠ Card occupying a strategic middle ground. The card comes with a $350 annual fee and offers numerous features for those who occasionally fly with United Airlines.

New cardholders can earn a significant welcome bonus of 90,000 miles and 500 Premier qualifying points after spending $4,000 within three months of opening the account. According to recent valuations, these bonus points are equivalent to $1,215. Besides the welcome bonus, the card provides several advantages aimed at long-term benefits.

These benefits include a $200 annual credit in United TravelBank cash, up to 20,000 miles in award flight discounts, and two free checked bags for both the cardholder and a companion per reservation. Other perks involve priority boarding, complimentary space-available upgrades with United elite status, and various credits for hotels, flights, car rentals, and ride-hailing services. Cardholders can also earn two global Economy Plus upgrades annually, receive a credit for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck fee, and enjoy 25% back on select in-flight services.

The Quest Card presents an attractive offer for semi-frequent United flyers, as outlined by its ability to cover most of the annual fee through TravelBank cash and checked baggage benefits. However, individuals seeking access to United Club lounges or who have exceeded Chase's 5/24 rule may find better options elsewhere. Additionally, those preferring flexible redemption options rather than United miles might consider other credit card options.

"Whether you're a semi-frequent United flyer or someone exploring the benefits of United's mid-tier credit cards, the Quest Card provides powerful benefits," summarizes Zach Griff from The Points Guy. For those interested in exploring these offerings further, reviewing the full card details and considering eligibility is recommended.

For related details, explore further comparisons with the United℠ Explorer Card, which carries a lower annual fee but fewer benefits, or the United Club℠ Card, which caters to frequent flyers with lounge access needs.
