If you ever spend more than $300 in flights, that card is essentially free (10k points rewarded when paying AF). Plus the card has PPS with restaurant benefit, also newly added Plaza Premium lounges, dare I say it's a card Capitol One pay you to hold. A very solid card for now.
Venture X is 500/yr vs. 95 for Venture, how ís 1 booking of 300 becoming free yearly fee?
I believe the AF for the X is $395.
$400 a year fee but you get $300 in travel credit back and you get 10k miles each anniversary. Basically "free" once you account for those and the lounge accesses if you value all of that. If you don't fly often it's obviously not worth it

Yup you got it! And no worries we all learn about the details mostly through word of mouth so you're good.
I'm still scratching my head over whether the X would be worth it for me. I don't travel much but intend to more in the future and my daughter lives in MX so I fly through DFW when I visit and they have a lounge. So far I've never had enough time between connecting flights to take advantage of it though...
I tend to use a different card that gives me 2% back as my daily driver so I wouldn't be spending much on the X except for the $300 travel credit. So I doubt I'd earn much if any in the way of a yearly bonus. Am I thinking about that correctly?
As an aside, I've already gotten bonuses on two C1 cards and then stopped using them so I don't know if they'd give me the X anyway.

You also get the $120 global entry & pre check credit if you need that for the 1st year. But yeah the lounge access need is probably the biggest factor between getting it or not. Also the anniversary bonus is 10k miles regardless of your spend in the year so theoretically you do get all your money back if you value these points at 1 cent per mile.
Got it, thanks. I already have the pre-check but it's good to know the 10k miles happen regardless of spend.
