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.
