Overview

If you fly Delta regularly and are looking to hit a higher level of Medallion elite status, this card can be a valuable asset in your wallet. Not only do cardmembers enjoy access to the airline’s Sky Clubs* when flying Delta, but they can earn 1 Medallion Qualification Dollar (MQD) for every $10 spent on the card each year — putting you closer to status, just with business-related spending. *Effective Feb. 1, 2025, Reserve cardmembers will receive 15 visits per year to the Delta Sky Club; to earn an unlimited number of visits each year starting on Feb. 1, 2025, the total eligible purchases on the card must equal $75,000 or more between Jan. 1, 2024 and Dec. 31, 2024, and each calendar year thereafter.

Pros

  • Access to Delta Sky Clubs when flying the airline
  • A companion certificate that can be used for a domestic first-class, Delta Comfort+ or main cabin round-trip flight
  • Earn Medallion Qualification Dollars toward elite status through spending
  • Multiple statement credits on select purchases

Cons

  • Steep $650 annual fee
  • Limited earning rates apart from Delta purchases

Who is this card good for?

This card was made especially for frequent Delta flyers since it confers access to Delta Sky Club lounges to the cardholder when flying Delta. Folks with the card can also earn MQDs toward elite status through spending and even receive an annual companion certificate annually upon card renewal, good for one round-trip Main Cabin, Comfort+ or first-class itinerary in select fare classes (you just pay taxes and fees on the second ticket).

Earning Rewards

The Delta Reserve Business Amex earns 3 miles per dollar spent on purchases made directly with Delta and 1.5 miles per dollar spent on eligible transit, U.S. shipping and U.S. office supply store purchases. You’ll earn 1 mile per dollar spent on all other eligible purchases. However, after you spend $150,000 on your card in a calendar year, this earning rate on other purchases increases to 1.5 miles per dollar spent for the rest of the year.
