AMEX, the new Diners Club Card
I use the Scotia gold AMEX as my main card, accepted at all gas stations, major online retailers, most restaurants, most grocery stores sans Superstore. Dunno how you guys are saying it's not accepted at most places. For any places that don't accept it then I use my Visa which is just 1:1 for travel points instead of 4x on the AMEX for gas/grocery/restaurants/entertainment. Not the end of the world if someone doesn't accept Amex for myself.
Yeah I'm saying most this and that but I'll take most spots and get 4x the points over having to use an Aeroplan or Avion related card.
Still enjoy my RBC WJ mastercard. Used some points and the annual companion voucher to get a couple flights to Vegas for nearly free. Don't think we'll need the free checked bag, but who knows. Heck yes.

We get a ton of value out of our WJ card. I just got back from a family trip to Orlando and saved $250 in baggage alone (4 girls = mucho luggage haha).This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It's a great card for a lot of people. I basically never go anywhere WJ doesn't fly, so for me it's amazing.

I’m thinking about getting the WJ card for the wife, even just to visit her dad in Nova soctia it would be worth it, but having 2 premium cards seems like a Colossal waste and I really like my Avion.

If you fly with Westjet the annual fee is easily recouped in the saved baggage fees.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I totally get that it doesn't work for everyone but in our case it's perfect. We mostly travel to LA and Orlando and we spend enough monthly that almost all of our trips are covered by the rewards. That plus the free baggage more than makes up for the annual fee.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
My CC have their own purpose(s):
WJ - Use it once to fly to PHX during Christmas.. save quite a bit on companion (plus free baggage)
CO Aspire WE - mostly everything as it's 2% cash/travel back
Scotiabank Momentum - gas, non-costco groceries
Home Trust - Travel
GO FLAMES GO!
I switched away from avion because the only places I fly westjet goes to. The free baggage is minor, but the annual companion voucher is awesome. Makes fucking around with seat sales less important, because that voucher is the same $99 no matter what the seats cost.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Looking for new CC options.
Currently have;
Diners Club through work
RBC Infinite Avion
American Express Cobalt
Either Air Miles or Aeroplan points (50k Air Canada status) preferably, but open to options.
Ditch the Avion for a WestJet MasterCard.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Holy shit. Why on earth would you do that to yourself??! Are you flying somewhere to have you nuts rubbed in A5-35 and connected to 110V? Lemme dig up that joke about "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT!!!!?" about Air Can.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Oh well... To each their own.
I don't care for that airline.
not everyone has the same experience with airlines.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I also personally prefer flying AC as I've had more bad experience with WJ.
Canadian airlines are all (both) same shit different pile.
At least AC has real business class on most routes.

Trying out Avion Infinite Privilege and, maybe adding WestJet MC. Super easy to recoup cost on WJ MC, not entirely sure about the Avion, but we'll see how the extra 25 percent points go. It's not easy to switch away from Avion as I still have over 300,000 points and I like how it works. Can't be that hard to drink four hundred bucks worth of airport lounge booze.

I get great value out of mine. The WJ is interesting just due to the perks.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
You always have the option to convert avion to BA Avios as well if you want to plan a trip to the UK.
