Rewards Credit Cards

What do you guys think are the best/most rewarding? This will be a business card and we will be racking up a lot lot of points.

I am looking mostly for travel and flexibility.

My search has made me think the Starwood Preferred Guests American Express is likely my best bet. I get the Starwood properties and you can transfer 1-1 into most airline programs.

I also am thinking of the No Hassle card and the Citi Premier Pass (altho I have one of those for another business already).

I prefer the card tied to the Hilton Honors program, but I almost always stay in Hilton properties.

I prefer the southwest card, but they're making it harder to use the free flights you earn.

The main reason I like it is that we rack up so many points (with purchases and flights) that I can qualify for a free companion pass every year which means everywhere I fly, my wife can fly with me for free. So we turn every little trip (business or otherwise) into a short vacation. You have to use the card and fly a LOT to qualify though.The Link

I have a Diners Club card which is now basically Mastercard. It used to be our company card and because I had built-up a lot of points, I decided to keep the card after I left instead of cashing in my points (transitioned to a personal card).

It costs me about $75/year (you can do much better or find one without a fee) but I have always liked Diners customer service and their point system is pretty robust, e.g., hotels, airlines, gifts and other stuff.

I have the starwood hotels amex and really like it. For most of the airlines if you transfer 20000 starwood points they give you 25000 miles, so it works out to about 1:1.25 conversion. The only downside to it is that there are still some places that don't take amex, so I have to keep a backup credit card on me too.

Costco's AmEx card is an attractive option.
