TPS values the Gold offer at no less than $650 using the 1 cent per SkyMile valuation ($500), a $50 statement credit & $100 for the baggage credit assuming that you’ll use this on at least 4 flights.

TPS values the Platinum offer at no less than $1,250 using the 1 cent per SkyMile valuation ($700), a $100 statement credit, the companion certificate which should get you at least $250 in value & $100 for the baggage credit assuming that you’ll use this on at least 4 flights.

The verdict?

The Platinum offer is a significantly better value with at least $1,250 in benefits and more than justifies the $195 annual fee! Also, if you are a Delta Medallion member you’ll more than enjoy the 10,000 bonus MQMs!
