Plus or regular?
You want the plus. Plus has 40,000 signup bonus & 2x on all purchases. The regular has 20,000 bonus & 1x on purchases.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum -wasn't sure where to post - but was looking for the most updated "best card to use for..." post from Dan - last one I found was from 2013...is there a more recent one?  if not - Dan - any plans for a refresh in the near future?  I have historically been a big fan/user of avios and with the former 1.25 per $ - used that card for most everything... now with that gone - would love to get your thoughts on best cards for spending in different scenarios like in the previous posts.

Thanks for all the deals and info!
