Although The Flight Deal’s primary goal is to bring you the best airfare, we do have recurring monthly expenses such as web hosting and e-mail services. We pay those bills using a Chase Ink Bold to maximize points and mileage earning. If you run a small business, here are some cards that will help you gain valuable cash or points for your expenses. Offset your spending with cashback or use earned miles and points to travel in business and first class in the most economical way we know how.
