Quick Thoughts
It is somewhat surprising to see the return of such big offers on these cards so soon after they were recently increased, but this could be great timing for those getting back into the swing of travel. The Gold card offers might be particularly appealing given no fee for the first year, making the bonuses easily worth north of a thousand dollars in travel, though it would be hard to argue with any of them.
Those chasing a reduced path to elite status with Delta this year could take advantage of the Delta Reserve card offer to get most of the way to Delta Silver from the welcome offer alone and a nice chunk of miles to go with it (and keep in mind that redeeming those miles will also help toward elite status this year).
Overall, it’s just great to see the hits keep coming. Hopefully the credit card wars continue to heat up if it means awesome new offers like these keep coming at us. Note that we did see targeted offers that may have been slightly better in some circumstances in recent memory, but these offers are at the very least almost as good as it gets.

Seeing 4k MSR on business gold?
95k skypesos!?! Good for one way economy to somewhere you don’t even want to go.
No need for the hyperbole, man. 95,000 skypesos are easily enough for a *round trip* ticket to somewhere you don’t want to go.
*eyeroll* I’ve flown Georgia to Seattle in first class for only 60K. If you fly competitive routes, or short haul flights, you can get tremendous value from Delta in general. Everyone loves to hate on skymiles, but they themselves are no more or less valuable than any other airline’s currency. As long as you don’t fly routes that are expensive in cash, you won’t pay a lot in skymiles since the two are directly tied.
Which makes them useless. The entire point of miles is to fly routes you couldn’t otherwise afford.
At the very least, you can redeem 95K miles for $950 in flights. Very hard to call that useless.
